SFP can explain why this is simply not true. And if it is true, he can explain why it’s no big deal.

And that this is "old news", "irrelevant", and a "nothingburger."

The more people who have jobs, the more people grow tired of democrat policies.

Deportations, voluntary or otherwise, help fuel this. Not the only reason, but it is a factor.

I'd be interested to see how many have dropped out of the workforce.

Is the jobless rate calculated today as it was in 1969?

I'm a huge Trump supporter but this is BS. He needs to revoke and deny all H1Bs, then the jobless rates would actually improve.

They’re not counting some ridiculously portion of the working age population because they’re not looking for work.

It’s all bullshite.

I thought Americans didn't want to do the jobs that migrants were willing to do?
