US economy added just 29,000 jobs in September

The US labor market added only 29,000 jobs in September while unemployment rose to 4.2%, according to a new jobs report. Critics contrasted the weak figure with the previous administration's average of roughly 186,000 jobs per month, and mocked President Trump after he gave himself an "A+" on the economy, dubbing him "DisasterDon" in response to the numbers.

Why now: The weak September jobs report and rising unemployment have reignited criticism of the administration's economic claims.
