This week’s initial jobless claims report is in, and it’s not good news for the American people. The uptick in unemployment is just the latest signal that Donald Trump is responsible for an anemic economy that is wreaking havoc on working families. Just last week, layoffs hit at their highest levels since the COVID-19 pandemic. Consumer sentiment is down, with inflation rising and everyday costs spiking due to Trump’s disastrous tariff scheme. With jobless claims on the rise and at their highest level since June, there’s no question that American families are paying the price for Trump’s reckless incompetence.
