Trump’s response to the latest jobs numbers from BLS on Friday: 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, who faked the Jobs Numbers before the Election to try and boost Kamala’s chances of Victory. This is the same Bureau of Labor Statistics that overstated the Jobs Growth in March 2024 by approximately 818,000 and, then again, right before the 2024 Presidential Election, in August and September, by 112,000. These were Records — No one can be that wrong? We need accurate Jobs Numbers. I have directed my Team to fire this Biden Political Appointee, IMMEDIATELY. She will be replaced with someone much more competent and qualified (Truth).
Remember during the Biden years when the numbers usually came in good. And then a month later later, when no one was paying attention, they were revised down drastically?
“We need people we can trust.”
He needs to just fire everyone appointed by Joe Biden.

“Why did you fire the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics?”
Trump: “Because I think her numbers are wrong… Days before the election she came out with these beautiful numbers for Kamala… Then right after she had a 900k reduction”
Then, on Sunday: President Trump on Sunday defended his decision to fire the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) following a weak jobs report, a move that has sparked broad pushback. Trump in a post on his Truth Social platform asserted that fired BLS Commissioner Erika McEntarfer “had the biggest miscalculations in over 50 years,” portraying Friday’s dismal jobs numbers as the latest example. The president alleged the labor official “did the same thing just before the Presidential Election, when she lifted the numbers for jobs to an all time high. I then won the Election, anyway, and she readjusted the numbers downward, calling it a mistake, of almost one million jobs. A SCAM!” “She did it again, with another massive ‘correction,’ and got FIRED!” Trump added (The Hill).

President Trump is rightly going off on the Head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics who he just fired.
He needs to just fire everyone appointed by Joe Biden.
My guess is Democrats will focus on the fact he wrote an extra “of” in this post. pic.twitter.com/jzB6LdsE8c
