Another 6.6 million Americans file for unemployment; total surges to over 16 million in 3 weeks

But it will all come roaring back….right???

Jobless rolls continued to swell due to the coronavirus shutdown, with 6.6 million Americans filing first-time unemployment claims in the week ended April 4, the Labor Department reported Thursday.

That brings the total over the past three weeks to more than 16 million.

The most recent number represents a decline of 261,000 from a week ago, which was revised up by 219,000 to nearly 6.9 million.

CNBC:

Trump’s handling of the COVID-19 crisis has affected his bigly poll numbers; he’s down. He received a bit of a bump a few weeks ago but that was short lived. The more he talks and lets the world know how little he knows, his approval rating slides.

Who will be Trump' running mate?
