Former President Donald Trump on Wednesday accused the Biden administration of "fraudulently manipulating" statistics after the government announced revised job growth numbers for this year showing lower growth than previously reported. Biden/Harris are leftwing radical liars and cheats.
The Labor Department released a revised report this week showing that the U.S. added 818,000 fewer jobs between April 2023 and March 2024 than originally stated in a previous report. The initial report showed the U.S. added an average of 242,000 jobs per month during that time, but the revised figures show the U.S. added 174,000 jobs per month. The Labor Department also noted that the revised figures are preliminary and the final results will not be released until February.
In a statement on Truth Social, Trump called the revelation a "MASSIVE SCANDAL!" and accused President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris of "fraudulently manipulating" statistics on jobs growth. Trump added: "The Harris-Biden Administration has been caught fraudulently manipulating Job Statistics to hide the true extent of the Economic Ruin they have inflicted upon America.
"New Data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics shows that the Administration PADDED THE NUMBERS with an extra 818,000 Jobs that DO NOT EXIST, AND NEVER DID. The real Numbers are much worse than that and, if Comrade Kamala gets another four years, millions more Jobs will VANISH overnight, and Inflation will completely destroy our Country. YOUR LIFE SAVINGS WILL BE WIPED OUT." Trump concluded with a vow that "With a TRUMP VICTORY, we will once again have the Greatest Economy in History.
