Lee always leaves shit out when he posts hit pieces on Trump.
"I was just informed that our Country's "Jobs Numbers" are being produced by a BIDEN APPOINTEE, DR. ERIKA MCENTARFER, the
Commissioner of Labor Statistics," Trump wrote in a social media post Friday afternoon. "I have directed my Team to fire this BIDEN
POLITICAL APPOINTEE, immediately. She will be replaced with someone much more competent and qualified."
Let's see your proof, lyin' Lee, that Dr. McEntarfer posted the stats, and they were 100% correct.
It's not like a BIDEN appointee would EVER try to screw Trump over.
NOOOOOOO!
Apparently her office has a history of releasing incorrect data.
Check with actual experts, not the MAGA propaganda machine. The BLS
monthly data is known by Wall Street to have an inherent trade-off of timeliness vs precision, plus its also known that the magnitude of later revisions increases with increased economic volatility, which is an
additional signal in the reporting system for those who understand it;
high downward revision values are indicative of a forthcoming recession.
The jobs report that had glowing reviews released right before the election was quietly revised after the election.
...
Nope, the revisions take place in every report, come rain or shine.
And the market wasn't volatile at all because of the election cycle?
Better go back and check how the ^VIX was spiking over 20...
