From a just-published Reuters article, via cnbc.com:
New applications for U.S. jobless benefits increased less than expected last week and the number of Americans receiving unemployment aid fell to its lowest level since 1973, pointing to tightening labor market conditions.
Initial claims for state unemployment benefits rose 2,000 to a seasonally adjusted 211,000 for the week ended April 28, the Labor Department said on Thursday. Claims dropped to 209,000 in the prior week, which was the lowest level since December 1969.
Economists polled by Reuters had forecast claims rising to 225,000 in the latest week.
So? Does President Trump – maybe because of his pro-business campaign and tax legislation, among other things – get any credit for this?
Or do you figure this is Barack Obama’s doing; that he came back from almost a year and a half ago, and got it done instead?
Your call.

Just like the last Republican President G W Bush, the media will not give Trump any credit and barely will report the great news.
