Leisure and hospitality represented almost half the jobs gained. The May gain was by far the biggest one-month jobs surge in U.S. history since at least 1939. The only previous month to register more than a million jobs was September 1983, at 1.1 million. So very good news. Wall street reacted as expected. However still have elevated unemployed at 21 million.
Trump will destroy Biden? Like he did Hillary? With his 6th grade vocabulary and redundant rambling? Be honest Nick cognitively he's slipping fast. Imo he is in the grips of serious cognitive decline. Watch interviews from even 4-5 years ago, much sharper. Now he searches for words and repeats himself when he's at a loss. If he goes off script (teleprompter) he's lost. Biden is prone to cognitive lapse as well, neither is getting any younger. I think Biden is a favorite in any debate because he knows how to frame an argument and get the relevant substance out front. Yes he may stammer and fumble at times, but he knows the issues and can articulate them. Trump can't. All he does is attack. Aggression is his modus operandi. He won't rattle Biden, for better or worse, he's a seasoned pro and polished politician who has been there and done that. Trump is a stuff shirt and blowhard, full of bluster.
