Wouldn't an improved economy lower unemployment across the board?
Not sure why this is a surprise.
So Obama wasn't such a bad president after all?
Black unemployment started to decline dramatically since 2012

Why is it that people attack the guy who posted a news article, instead of attacking the article itself? Dare I say, that seems a bit ignorant? (Jeeze I hope that doesn't offend anyone)

Your chart shows 2016 ending at 2% unemployment. Ridiculous.

So you're saying that Obama doesn't deserve credit for lowering that rate over his entire presidency where he had over 6 years straight of job growth across the board? Do you remember what Obama came into office on the heels of? The biggest recession since the great depression. I'd say he did a great job considering the circumstances.

Since you're so positive this is wholly due to Trump then you'll have no problem showing that these numbers aren't the continuation of a downward trend.

Yet it was growth, even after the disaster that was the recession. Obama deserves credit for that, not Trump as the OP tries to do in this thread.

I was posting a report, not showing a personal analysis. I don't work for the government or have a research company.
