Trump's first full month in office brings massive employment boom as U.S. companies added whopping 298,000 new jobs in February

New job figures from ADP beat economists' estimates by more than 100,000

Official February numbers will be out on Friday and are expected to lower the unemployment rate to 4.7 per cent

Trump tweeted that January and February 'were the strongest consecutive months for hiring since August and September 2015'

That language came from a similar report compiled by LinkedIn

Thanks Obama. Hopefully Trump can keep it going. I have my doubts with his 35% tariff. Taxes are job killers (unless you're a Dipper, then they're great)

Depends. Tariffs would kill jobs in Mexico but create rising inflation in the US. It might create more jobs in the US, but with rising prices, we'd really just be creating the working poor.

Working poor can't afford extras.

Taxes kill jobs. Everybody but Dippers and Trumpites understand that.

Whether tariffs would create jobs in the US or kill them, what is clear is that it would promote inefficiencies in economies of scale. Inefficiencies mean extra overhead costs that will be passed on to consumers.

This isn't the first time he'll take the credit for something someone else did.

Who would have thought an employment boom under Trump would bring the libs to such tears.

He can do that because Trumpites believe companies make major decisions like that in mere months. Clearly Trumpites aren't very business savvy.
