ME News message, December 23 (UTC+8), the unemployment rate in the United States reached a four-year high of 4.6% in November, yet Trump claims that just a "phone call" can bring the unemployment rate to zero. Analysis points out that this kind of "burying one's head in the sand" while ignoring the public's real feelings is putting him at great risk. Questioning the validity of official data could undermine the government's important role in helping businesses make informed hiring decisions. Trump asserts that the U.S. job market is better than it actually is, which could raise doubts about his own credibility, especially on the economy, which is his weakest topic in the midterm elections.
