Larry Kudlow is bracing for a bad jobs report and is fully aware the left will blame Trump even though Biden planted the “seeds” for an economic decline.
The FOX Business Network host raised his concerns while speaking with Secretary of Agriculture Brook Rollins on Thursday.
“Some very, very smart people are telling me that the jobs number that’s coming at the February jobs number that’s coming out Friday could be flat, even negative, Brookie!” Kudlow exclaimed.
“My generic point here, with respect to affordability and the economy, is we’re going to have to suffer through some bad news. This has nothing to do with Trump. Trump’s programs not in yet!
“And I’ve got people on the left who are blaming Trump. How can you blame Trump when he wasn’t president when these seeds were planted?”
Rollins agreed.
“Well, you couldn’t be more right about that because we’ve only been here 30 plus days. You can’t turn an entire economy around in 30 days.”

Of course, 1 day, 30 days, heck, Trump wouldn’t even have to be in office for leftists to blame him for bad news, of any kind.
Case in point:
Trump’s golden age begins with one of the worst post pandemic job reports. The economy created just 77,000 new jobs in February, compared to an average of 185,000 per month during the last year of Biden.

Our country’s gone to hell—stocks crashing, jobs report down, costs high. Nobody respects us anymore.

The ADP jobs report was a huge miss for Donald Trump.
U.S. private employment only rose by 77k in February, far below the expectations of 140k.
Recession here we come.

“Recession here we come”!!!
Horrible Jobs report released today.
Just 77,000 jobs added.
Our economic growth has slowed to a crawl and will soon go in reverse thanks to Trump’s failed leadership.

There is some pushback beginning:
The previous administration Under Biden, irresponsibly added millions of unnecessary and redundant federal jobs, placing a greater burden on taxpayers. This was done to create the illusion of job growth. Even with these inflated numbers, nearly every economic jobs report had to…

The last annual jobs report revision before Trump took office found Democrats over reported job growth by 818,000 for the year.
That’s 818,000 jobs Democrats said they created that never existed in 1 year alone.
It was the largest downward revision in 14 years.

Meanwhile, it looks as if there’s plenty of hope for the future:
A new poll from Rasmussen Reports has revealed that a total of 60 percent of voters between the ages of 18 and 39 approve of Trump’s job performance.https://t.co/hPhXY3lApX
