The economy has been hemorrhaging jobs for months, due to a number of issues, many of them caused by the willful incompetence of this administration. Who knew tariffs would increase inflation or that it would reduce overseas demand for American goods? Tariffs can be used strategically, but Trump basically wields it as a way to blackmail various leaders or play favorites with those that buy into his shady crypto companies and other interests.

Hell, the only reason the stock market is still strong is due to AI. And tech companies have shed thousands of jobs over the last few months.
