Cracks me up
Here in Florida non-stop Trump ads about how he created 10 million jobs running right after the new unemployment figures that 900k claims were filed and Disney a major employer in the area just laid off 28k
600k-900k = 10 million
Trump math

Hopefully, a job opening at the White House will open very, very, very soon.

My heart goes out to all those who are struggling because of Trump’s failures.

And don’t forget that the CBO said a recession started in February before the lockdown. The media sure have.

Economists had expected the number to be 850,000, so well below expectations.
Kneejerkers abound. I don’t quite understand why the stock markets are all down today. If anything, I’d think that most businesses would be pleased that the extremely erratic and hyper-malevolent BLOTUS IMPOTUS is out of commission for a bit. I know I sure am happy about it, and I’m also a long-term investor (and if you have a 401(k) or an IRA, you’re a long-term investor, too). A little peace and quiet is a good thing.
One can only hope that Twitler’s thumbs operate more slowly for the duration of his infection.

Bleeping AP. No mention of all manner of economic supports expiring for people and companies?

DeSantis just took the brakes off and opened all of Florida up, which will show as jobs created shortly and just as quickly shut down when C-19 cases explode.
It’s not like we are having a good day in Fla. as it is, you know. The daily case rate is horrendous.

No relief package insight, nothing, nada for the big corp and the airlines were hoping for a bailout…again. So rich people are unhappy no more money is being splashed about.

It’s funny, this jobs report was supposed to be a huge deal, six months ago everyone was saying how this one turned out would be critical to Trump’s campaign as it would give him a chance to say how strong the economy is. And it falls like a tree in the forest, due to Trump’s own sickness being bigger news. Just one more thing that could have turned the election around for Trump sabotaged by him.

“Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire which is prepared for the devil and his angels; for I was hungry, and you didn’t give me food to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me no drink; I was a stranger, and you didn’t take me in; naked, and you didn’t clothe me; sick, and in prison, and you didn’t visit me.”
