Donald Trump escalates his war on numbers

Another shocking assault on a non-partisan institution

|4 min read

JUST FOUR months ago Donald Trump was basking in the glow of the jobs report produced by the Bureau of Labour Statistics (BLS). “GREAT JOB NUMBERS, FAR BETTER THAN EXPECTED”, he posted on Truth Social. But on August 1st the BLS announced that employers had added fewer jobs than expected in July; it also revised downward the employment data for the previous two months. This time Mr Trump turned on the messenger. Saying (without evidence) that the figures were “rigged”, he fired Erika McEntarfer, the BLS commissioner who was confirmed last year on a bipartisan basis.
