The jobs numbers suck.

US lost 33,000 jobs in Sept, vs 90,000 jobs increase expected.
This is the first time the U.S. economy has lost jobs since September 2010 – seven years ago.
In addition to September's rough month, the July number was revised lower from 189,000 to 138,000 though August got a bump higher from 156,000.

Don't worry your pretty little heads about it ladies.
Those numbers are all fake anyway.
Remember? Your Great Orange Hope said so when the black guy was in office.

He actually appointed a few to important positions, and his mentor and spiritual advisers were both Communists.
Because you're a dishonest partisan hack.

Under Obama ACA and Dodd/Frank caused a tax burden on full time employees and expensive regulations when the number of 50 employees was reached as a result small businesses started hiring part time employees and converting some full time employees to part time. Larger businesses cut employees. You ignore these facts.

The rally is being organized by the same groups that helped organize the white nationalist protests that occurred in Charlottesville, Virginia this past August.
They are Trump supporters.
Deal with it.

The rules would let a broad range of employers -- including nonprofits, private firms and publicly traded companies -- stop offering contraceptives through their health insurance plans if they have a "sincerely held religious or moral objection," senior agency officials said on a call about the implementation and enforcement of the new rules.

Let's take a walk down memory lane and remember a few times Trump trashed the jobs numbers as “fake,” incomplete or something other than the right way to determine whether America had been made “great again.”

The unemployment rate decreased by 0.2 percentage point to 4.2 percent in September, and the number of unemployed persons declined by 331,000 to 6.8 million. Both measures were down over the year. (See table A-1.)

Among the major worker groups, the unemployment rates for adult men (3.9 percent) and Blacks (7.0 percent) declined in September. The jobless rates for adult women (3.9 percent), teenagers (12.9 percent), Whites (3.7 percent), Asians (3.7 percent), and Hispanics (5.1 percent) showed little change. (See tables A-1, A-2, and A-3.)

Employment in food services and drinking places dropped sharply in September (-105,000), as many workers were off payrolls due to the recent hurricanes. Over the prior 12 months, food services and drinking places had added an average of 24,000 jobs per month.

In September, health care added 23,000 jobs, in line with its average monthly gain over the prior 12 months (+27,000). The employment increase in ambulatory health care services (+25,000) was partially offset by a decline in nursing care facilities (-9,000).

Employment in transportation and warehousing increased by 22,000 in September. Job gains occurred in warehousing and storage (+5,000), couriers and messengers (+4,000), and air transportation (+3,000).

Not from the link

Additionally, you will begin to see the uptick from retail/logistics for the holidays that we see every year. The trump supporters will celebrate, the lefties will point out it is the holidays. It may be a little lower due to the brick and mortar stores losing out to excommunicate. Feb will probably tell the tale.

And keep in mind many of the seasonal hires will probably be 29ers.
