Just 48.82% had a full-time job in May 2026
Trump I averaged 49.23% full-time, even with 2020 thrown in there.
For 2017, 2018, 2019 the average was 49.87%.
2019 averaged 50.38% full-time, Trump's best year.
Trump's best month was July 2019 at 50.98%, which Biden did not beat.
Trump is making America 2017 again, not great.
Full-time peaks in the summers, so we'll see what happens, but the set-up doesn't look promising.
The Dow Jones consensus estimate for May jobs was +80k, leisure and hospitality alone led all sectors with +70k lol, well above the 14k/month average over the past year, government added 52k, education and health services 40k
Productive jobs rose by 7k in manufacturing, by 17k in construction, and by 4k in mining and logging, mixed in there with the others.
U.S. payrolls rose by 172,000 in May, much more than expected; unemployment at 4.3%
