[quote] In a freewheeling Friday-morning press conference in the Rose Garden, President Donald Trump touted a strong May jobs report and said he hoped George Floyd, who was killed by the Minneapolis police 10 days ago, was “looking down” from heaven and saying this “is a great thing that’s happening for our country.”
The jobs report stunned economists and defied forecasts of further economic decline. The US added 2.5 million jobs in May, bringing the unemployment rate down to 13.3% from 14.7% in April.
