President Trump’s economy is surging and the success is presenting a major problem for Democrats as they gear up to battle him in 2020.

According to Fox News:

President Trump might as well stick his tweet Friday morning on a campaign bumper sticker: “JOBS, JOBS, JOBS!”

The social media declaration came as the Labor Department reported robust new economic numbers, saying employers added 263,000 jobs in April as the unemployment rate dropped to a 49-year low.

The stats only bolstered the president’s economy-focused message as he gears up for what is sure to be a grueling 2020 re-election fight. As Democrats increasingly make the election about the president’s character and controversies, the string of positive jobs reports are complicating any efforts to expand that message to run on more traditional kitchen-table issues.

…

While Trump spotlighted the new economic report, the news appears to make it a tougher sell for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination contenders on the economy, which remains a leading issue for voters.

Most of the current candidates for president have passed on even commenting on the new report from the labor department.
