A reliable gauge of the underlying job market is average job growth over the past three months. Right now, that's -22k. (And again, the Fed's Powell says that likely overstates reality for technical reasons.)

We're losing jobs.

Call it a jobs recession.

Lazy, and also wildly disingenuous. We don’t say “it’s just an earthquake being an earthquake” and ¯\_(ツ)_/¯, we perform rescues, we help people, we mitigate against future damage. Some of us are trying to do that with Trump.
