The current U.S. unemployment rate, as President Trump’s supporters love to boast, is 4.3 percent.

Is there any chance of President Obama getting credit for the carryover of eight years of economic prosperity? Nope, not in the universe of alternative reality.

Then, the healthy numbers would be explained away as they were in the previous administration, when they were attributed to part-time jobs and workers not being counted, as they had given up looking?

Or maybe it’s more fake news from the lamestream media?

Yeah, that must be it.
