MAGA: The Weakest Job Growth In 6 Years

Steve Benen: “Providing some additional context, now that we have data for all of the previous calendar year, we can note that the U.S. added 1.84 million jobs in 2011, 2.19 million jobs in 2012, 2.33 million in 2013, 3.11 million in 2014, 2.74 million in 2015, 2.24 million in 2016, and 2.05 million in 2017.”



 
Real GDP growth of 1.9% in Q4 2016 is NOT a strong economy; no matter how much Kool-Aid you drink.
