This chaos must stop, it's terrible! Vote for change! The number of employed Americans has never been higher. The 156,562,000 Americans employed in October is the twefth record set under President Donald Trump. CW for length, more jobs numbers below. 

In October, the number of employed men age 20 and up -- 80,405,000 -- set the 12th record since Trump took office; and likewise, for the 12th time, the number of employed women age 20 and up set a record, reaching 70,909,000 in October.

The unemployment rate held at 3.7 percent, the same as September, which is the lowest it's been in decades -- since the end of 1969. And the Hispanic unemployment rate, 4.4 percent, has never been lower.

The unemployment rate for African-Americans, 6.2 percent, remained near the all-time low of 5.9 percent set in May.

On top of those numbers, the economy added a whopping 250,000 jobs last month.

@SecondJon True, Trump hasn't (yet) reversed the long trend that happened under Obama.

The left is more worried about wealth inequality. Trump has set new (bad) records there, but to be fair it's a decades-long problem under both major parties.

@peterdrake
I agree that the economy turned around when democrats lost the legislature under Obama.

I don't think the president actually gets credit or blame single handedly for the economy. There are many complex factors. My point is more that things are going swimmingly but it's hysterically portrayed as utter chaos that must. be. stopped.
