Unemployment Lowest in 49 Years

USA Today reports some very good news, courtesy of the U.S. Labor Department.
The unemployment rate fell from 3.9 to 3.7 percent, lowest since December 1969, the Labor Department said Friday.

Economists had estimated 185,000 new jobs were created last month, according to a Bloomberg survey.
Meanwhile, Rasmussen Reports' Daily Presidential Tracking Poll has President Trump at 51% approve, 48% disapprove.
This is Trump’s highest Presidential Approval Index rating since early March of last year, shortly after he first took office.By comparison, Barack Obama earned a presidential approval index rating of -11 on October 5, 2010, in the second year of his presidency.
The lowest unemployment in nearly a half century! Tell me that isn't a WOW!

Trump rightly gets much of the credit. Feckless Obama looks pathetic trying to claim it for himself.
