The jobs forecast was a 75,000 gain, even taking the hurricanes into consideration [View all]

This was the forecast: "The U.S. likely added just 75,000 new jobs last month in the wake of hurricanes Harvey and Irma, economists polled by MarketWatch forecast. That would be about half the size of the job gains in August."

We had a jobs loss instead. If right-wingers use the hurricane talking point (i.e. the jobs report isn't bad, because hurricanes), please note that the report was much weaker than expected anyway.
