Trump Leaked Sensitive Info From The May Jobs Report, And That’s A Big Effing Problem
The president scored cheap political points this morning by undermining trust in the U.S. economy.


A president who is obsessed with stopping leaks leaked extremely sensitive economic information about May’s jobs report Friday morning, over an hour before the report was officially released.

“Looking forward to seeing the employment numbers at 8:30 this morning,” President Donald Trump tweeted at 7:21 a.m., hinting the numbers would be favorable. Not only is that an hour before the report’s release, it’s a full two hours before government appointees are legally allowed to say anything at all.

This puts the Martha Stewart pardon in context, if you inside trade then Trump will pardon you if you are 'nice to him'.

"Justin Wolfers, an economist at the University of Michigan, neatly summed up the problems Trump's tweet presented:

I try to stay away from conspiracy-mongering, but do you really think that a President who can't help himself but to tweet about the jobs report ahead of its 8:30 release was more disciplined in last night's phone calls with his wealthy friends?https://t.co/BAnxqLWd1q "

Usual stuff aside, it was absolutely blatant abuse and indicates a tip of the iceberg.

What an incredible fantasy that the President tweeting that he is looking forward to a report somehow means he leaked sensitive information. This is another perverse example of liberals twisting reality to the breaking point.
