Oh sure. The bad part is that if the BLS report doesn't match ADT, everyone will say the BLS numbers are faked. Now, how Trump is going to pressure ADT into claiming a lot of new jobs, I don't know. But as we have seen ADT numbers were accurate.
Trump has no idea how these reports are put together and why they are revised. He doesn't even know that the prior two months are always revised as the final data from the companies comes in. He has zero interest in understanding how anything actually works, he only cares about how the numbers reflect on him. As President he should be looking at this and saying "holy heck what's causing this what's going on" and perhaps adjust his policies. That's what Presidents who care about the country do. Instead he looks at it and blows a gasket because it makes him look bad. I can't even begin to imagine what the US looks like in 3 years with this egomaniac running the show and nobody with the guts to rail him in
One thing is for certain the numbers going forward will be suspect and could even cause more uncertainty for companies who use the data .
That's absolutely true for many but the Trumpers watching Fox, many whom are retired, will sit back and listen to Fox and think everything is just rosy. Heck even when the numbers are bad Trump and Fox find a way to spin them as somehow good or call them fake and bobble heads bobble.I don't think people will pay attention to either the ADT or BLS numbers.
They will look at their own lives when Uncle Bob is on the last week of his Unemployment Insurance.
Or when their own resumes get no responses.
There is a real opportunity here for enterprising statisticians to come up with a solution to this information gap that Trump just created.
Any business that bases their decision on Fox's numbers will be vulnerable since good business forecasting should be based on reality.The opportunity will be for imaginative fiction writers at Fox News.
Trump has effed up much of what used to be dependable and utterly reliable data coming from our government. Now, anything that comes from government is questionable, since the current ‘administration’ is, like Trump himself, fundamentally dishonest.So We Can Count on a False Jobs Report?
Trump didn't like the jobs report, so he fired the director, do you think he'll be touting the numbers come November?
What say ye?
Hear, hear!

The new BLS numbers will be written in ketchup on the WH walls.Trump has no idea how these reports are put together and why they are revised. He doesn't even know that the prior two months are always revised as the final data from the companies comes in.

Trump is deeply and fundamentally dishonest. He is a liar. That is what he is and what he does.imo, I am highly skeptical of anything the White House puts out.
Trump said the elections were rigged when he lost.
Trump said the jobs report was rigged when he did not like the numbers.
I see a pattern.
Trump claimed he lowered drug prices by 1500%?You know, Trump fired the BLS Head because he didn’t like the numbers. This is after he got caught lying by Jerome Powell and after claiming he lowered prescription drug prices by 1,500%.

Or he'll just blame Powell for not cutting rates.
