Odaily News The unemployment rate in the U.S. reached a four-year high of 4.6% in November, but Trump argued that just a “phone call” could drop the unemployment rate to zero. Analysts point out that this kind of “burying one's head in the sand” that ignores 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's claim that the U.S. job market is better than reality may raise doubts about his own credibility, especially on the economy, which is his weakest issue in the midterm elections. (Jin10)
