    I have not being an outspoken Obama hater. I don't think he's been a good president. And I have been against the bailouts and Obamacare. That being said, wasn't it under his watch that unemployment rose to over 10%? So it would seem natural that the trend would have to come back down. Just like Reagan, when you cause high rates of unemployment, at some point it's going to drop. The economy is cyclical. It's gets really bad, then bounces back. The surprise here to me is that Obama got to see a second term, most presidents that have screwed the economy don't get that chance.

    You have a tenuous grasp on the financial collapse and resulting recession if you think that Obama "screwed the economy."
    I don't blame Obama alone. GW didn't help matter and Clinton started the mess.
    Actually Reagan started the mess. To quote his own VP with "voodoo economics "
    It's all George Washington's fault. Stupid wooden teeth ...

    U.S. unemployment falls to 4.9% before election
    That's down by half since 2009, when unemployment peaked at 10%.
    October's gains marked the 73rd consecutive month of job gains for the U.S. economy.
    Wages grew 2.8% in October compared to a year ago, the fastest growth since June 2009.
    Overall, the black unemployment rate at the end of October stood at 8.6%, down from a peak of 16.6% in 2010.
    The solid job numbers on Friday come one week after America posted its best quarterly economic growth in two years of 2.9%.

    Donald Trump has called the official unemployment rate a "hoax" and he's tried to discredit the Labor Department's official numbers.

    ftfa:
    Trump says the unemployment rate is closer to 10%, using a broader measure of unemployment, which also counts some part time workers as unemployed. The Bureau of Labor Statistics, a wing of the Labor Department, has never relied on this measure to describe the country's key unemployment rate.

    It's called the "U6 rate." For instance, U6 includes part-time workers who want full-time jobs. It also counts unemployed people who looked for a job in the past four weeks, as well as unemployed people who have looked for a job in the past year.
    The 5% rate -- known as U3 -- includes only unemployed people who were actively looking for a job in the past four weeks.
    Most economists believe U3 is a more accurate reflection of unemployment. It's been the accepted measure since the 1930s.

    Trumpsters always say this when trying to explain away the low unemployment rate.

    Why don't you compare the figure that you are looking for to that same figure on the date that Obama took office and let us know what you find?

    It's a fucking joke. These Trump supporters are even dumber than I thought... which means it's surprising they are even functional human beings.
