With only four days left before Election Day, the latest unemployment figures released by the federal government have sparked criticism from former President Donald Trump's campaign directed at Vice President Kamala Harris. The report revealed that only 12,000 jobs were created in October, significantly lower than the anticipated 120,000 and the lowest in four years.
The sluggish job growth was attributed to various factors, including the impact of Hurricanes Helene and Milton, the Boeing strike, and other labor disputes. Despite the reasons behind the poor numbers, the Trump campaign wasted no time in using the data to attack Harris, as both presidential nominees are engaged in a tight race in key battleground states.
