unemployment numbers. here s somebody in the past who said these numbers ain t real they re not true. we put together a couple of times the president said that. don t believe those phony numbers. unemployment number as you snow totally fiction. you see what s happening with real unemployment, not the phony unemployment numbers that you read. real unemployment. people that can t get jobs and have given up looking for jobs. so are today s numbers, the best in 18 years, are they real or phony what do you think? they re real to trump. they re real now. and right, since they came out especially after that tweet this we talked about. one of the reason trump constantly points to him for him one of the few high points in his presidency specifically related to marginalizing communities. look at his panics, black numbers and women he points to these numbers that he has when you look at the trade moves one the pieces of the political overlay is how this plays to the people who
