Life comes at you fast.

So if this administration's calculations are correct and the unemployment rate has been reduced from 42% to 4.7% - then 235,000 people account for 37.3% of the population? Got it.

For the record, 237,000 jobs were added in February 2016, and 238,000 added in February 2015. That trend continues under Trump, who's been in office 50 days and hasn't passed any legislation in regards to economics.

The unemployment rate - whose means of measurement has not changed since the 1940's - during Obama's final two months was 4.7% in December 2016 & 4.9% in January 2017.

It'll be interesting to see if Trump goes back to claiming the numbers are "phony" when we get farther away from the Obama Presidency & Republican "trick down" economic policies (plus dismantling of consumer financial & environmental protections) inevitably leads to job losses.
