Trump Won’t Confirm That New Jobs Data Will Be ‘Credible’

The latest jobs report is coming out on Friday, but President Donald Trump can’t promise that the numbers will be credible.

The president evaded a question over the credibility of the upcoming jobs report following the messy aftermath of the July release, when he fired then-Bureau of Labor Statistics chief Erika McEntarfer because he was unhappy with the numbers.

During a dinner with bigshot business leaders at the White House on Thursday, Trump was asked whether he would commit to saying that the data in the Friday jobs report would be credible.
