Good news if you happened to catch the tweet and were trading this morning:

Trump breaks protocol, sends markets a clear signal on jobs report before numbers are released

In a highly unusual move, President Trump tweeted early Friday morning that he was "looking forward to seeing the employment numbers." Trump's tweet moved markets as many on Wall Street thought the president was signaling that job gains would be far higher than the 200,000 that had been expected. Stocked jumped at the open with the Dow rising more than 200 points.

I think it would be helpful if lopsided-one-eye would just provide a short list of current economic factors are due to Bush, due to Obama, due to Trump, and then due to Congress. Followed by quick primer on which Georgia public school is responsible for his own mediocrity and political ignorance....are you a typical product of Sonny Perdue?

Also the Labor Participation Rate, which the Right Wing Media no longer cares about because a white guy is in office, dropped to 62.7%.

Alternately, can you point to how the trend line differs between this Presidency and the previous since the recovery began, and point out which new Trump policies caused the shift?
