President the Ego Driven has scheduled a presser for Thursday to brag about the latest Jobs Report.
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported on Thursday morning that total nonfarm payroll employment rose by 4.8 million in June and the unemployment rate declined to 11.1 percent.
The footnote:
In short since March, April, and May, unemployed people have been misclassified as “employed,” but the degree of misclassification for June declined considerably.
The White House has added a Trump "press briefing" at 9:30. (Last time there was an expectations-beating jobs report, he did a lengthy, rambling monologue and left without taking questions.)

This is not a briefing, this is a campaign event for President Toot’s His Own Horn, to brag to the American people still suffering the impact of the coronavirus pandemic while he pats himself on the back.

I cannot say if this event will be carried by cable news channels. If he takes questions which I highly doubt, I’m sure the cable news channels will carry that live.
