Trump undermines jobs data as White House defends firing of BLS chief

President Donald Trump and one of the best economic consultants on Monday have established unquestionable conspiracies about federal job data, and showed that the weak employment report on Friday was “fraudulent” by federal workers who focused on sabotaging the president.

“There were people who resisted Trump everywhere, everywhere in the US government,” National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett said in CNBC on Monday. He said.

By the way Trump, social media The report, which draws a dour picture of the economy, is “fraudulent” and the revisions of the previous months were made up to make a great republican success look less stars !!! “

Hassett said that the only way to maintain the integrity of economic data is to replace economists and statisticians leading the agencies that collect data.

“To ensure that the data is as transparent and reliable as possible, we will buy high -quality people with a new eye set on a new start and problem.” He said.

Trump suddenly fired the Erika Mcentarfer Office of the Working Statistics Commissioner on Friday.

Comments from Trump and Hassett on Monday were an attempt to criticize the work of the White House’s Workers’ Statistical Bureau to justify Mcentarfer’s fire backwards.

However, they went one step further by stitting the idea that any government economic data that did not fit properly to Trump’s political narrative should be wrong and manipulated by partisan federal employees due to its definition.

When the monthly job report from BLS is good news for the White House, Trump points out to demand loans for growth and as proof that the figures provided by BLS are working on their economic plans.

“Great job numbers, much better than expected. It works already. Wait, we can’t lose !!!” Trump wrote on social media this spring after business growing became better than expected in March.

Go a few months further and Trump and the highest -level assistants claim that BLS data cannot be trusted and the downward revisions in the last two -month job reports are fake.

He claims that Trump used to try to weaken the confidence of Americans in the voting process after he lost the 2020 presidential elections.

In a statement on Monday, Trump drew a straight line between the job report and the voting process.

“Last weeks, the report was sleepy just like the figures before the presidential elections,” Trump said.

However, there is no evidence that the data of job reports is manipulated and the revisions in the data are common. The reports become more accurate in the months after the first report is submitted, as the first report is present.

“He doesn’t do anything to collect the number of commissioners,” former Bls chief appointed by Trump, “He does nothing to collect numbers.” He said in CNN on Sunday He hit his decision to expel Mcentarfer.

“The commissioner does not see numbers until Wednesday before it was released.”
