...harvesting crops as migrant farm labor. Stoop laborers on construction sites. Washing dishes in restaurants. Cleaning homes. Mowing lawns.

CNN: "We came into this week and we said it was a pivotal week for the economy. And I gotta say -- indicator after indicator has turned out worse than expected. Core GDP really showed that the US economy slowed down during Q2. Yesterday's inflation report -- that heated up." pic.twitter.com/BdI9iqgDk2

This labor market is in trouble.
Healthcare are social assistance are pretty much the only sectors hiring. This is NOT healthy.

**Just +73,000 job gains in July**
Healthcare +55,000
Social assistance +18,000
Retail +16,000
Finance +15,000
Hospitality +5,000
State gov't +5,000…

Transport/warehouse +4,000
Construction +2,000

Professional and biz services -14,000
Federal gov't -12,000 (down -84,000 since January)
Manufacturing -11,000
Local gov't -3,000
Information -2,000

It’s Jerome Powell’s fault.

LOL -- it took about two minutes for Maria and company to find someone (other than Trump) to blame for the "very weak" July jobs report: it's Jerome Powell's fault! pic.twitter.com/APJokcElkL

Fox Biz commentator on the July jobs report: "This was a very weak report. The revisions certainly to May and June are very concerning. I'm surprised that unemployment is just at 4.2% ... we do see a softening jobs market ... I'm concerned about the labor market." pic.twitter.com/hRTEz2JzJV

The public will blame the Fed Chair, I’m sure. What to do about it? “Look! Over there! Hillary Clinton!!”

Rep. Greg Murphy: "Hillary Clinton is one evil woman. Just an evil woman. She's a liar, she's a cheat, and she's an evil woman. I just pray that there's enough appetite in the American public that people will open their eyes and see this." pic.twitter.com/zlzusfHheq

But pardon Ghislaine Maxwell out of jail so she can help Trump?

Make it make sense.
