HUGE Jobs Report for August! Democrats Most Hurt.https://pjmedia.com/matt-margolis/2026/09/04/huge-jobs-report-for-august-democrats-most-hurt-n4956886America's economy just handed Democrats their worst Friday of the year, mere weeks before the midterms.
The Labor Department's August 2026 jobs report dropped Friday morning, and it left the doom-and-gloom crowd on the Left with nothing to say. Employers added 162,000 jobs last month, crushing what economists were predicting and delivering exactly the kind of number Democrats have spent all summer insisting Donald Trump's economy couldn't produce. The new jobs were actually triple the expectations.
It gets worse for the left.
The report didn't just beat expectations for August; it rewrote the story of the entire summer. The Labor Department revised July's initial estimate of a 23,000-job loss up to a 21,000-job gain, and it revised June's payroll numbers higher, too. The "stalling economy" narrative Democrats have been pushing for months just collapsed under its own weight.
My emphasis. Under LIEden, revising previous months numbers downwards was the norm, sometimes adjusting downwards more than just once. Recent adjustments under Trump have been upwards, so August's 162,000 jobs may be similarly adjusted upwards.
