President Trump Nearly Triples Job Expectations In March

Rapid Response

President Trump and Republicans have far-exceeded job expectations for the month of March.

 

The economy was expected to add 60,000 new jobs. Instead, it created 178,000, while unemployment rates also dropped to 4.3%.




Initial reactions to this reporting say it all:

 

  • FOX BIZ: "This is one heck of a report, folks..."
  • CBNC: Unemployment "Comes in at 4.3%... a little bit of a shocker..."
  • CNN: "Really blowing away expectations..."

President Trump and Republicans are delivering on their promises and bringing jobs back to hardworking Americans.
