This guy. What won’t he lie about?
So this morning, Trump tweeted this:
And back on Planet Earth:
Sure, there were upward revisions in past months (which still don’t bring the jobs number to anything like 303,000), but that’s not how these things are reported.
Did he add in past months’ revisions to Obama’s jobs numbers when he continually criticized those?

Is Trump still chafing your arse-cheeks? Then Dear F*cking Lunatic: 101 Obscenely Rude Letters to Donald Trump and its breathlessly awaited sequel Dear F*cking Moron: 101 More Letters to Donald Trump by Aldous J. Pennyfarthing are the pick-me-up you need! Reviewers have called these books “hysterically funny,” “cathartic,” and “laugh-out-loud” comic relief. And they’re way, way cheaper than therapy.
