How is the left so constantly wrong?
We saw it as they pushed the Russia collusion hoax. It almost became a cottage industry for Rachel Maddow and her colleagues at MSNBC to push wild speculation at whatever the newest Twitter rumor was or the next great thing that was going to take President Donald Trump down. The only problem was there never was any truth to the claims.
Maddow shot any credibility she may have had with her Russia attacks on Trump, even embarrassing herself with a big tax return reveal that revealed exactly nothing.
You would think that her audience would learn and maybe some of them have.
But that still hasn’t stopped her from pushing nonsense, touted as “facts.”
So here she is showing that unerring ability to be completely, 100% wrong, once again.

In fact, not only weren’t the numbers “terrible,” they were terrific and historic, as we reported earlier.
The prediction had been that jobs might gain 2.9 million as some began returning to work. In fact, it started to 4.8 million new jobs and unemployment dropped yet again for the second straight month.
From CNBC:
Nonfarm payrolls soared by 4.8 million in June and the unemployment rate fell to 11.1% as the U.S. continued its reopening from the coronavirus pandemic, the Labor Department said Thursday.
Economists surveyed by Dow Jones had been expecting a 2.9 million increase and a jobless rate of 12.4%. The report was released a day earlier than usual due to the July Fourth holiday.
The jobs growth marked a big leap from the 2.7 million in May, which was revised up by 190,000. The June total is easily the largest single-month gain in U.S. history.
“Today’s announcement proves that our economy is roaring back. It’s coming back extremely strong,” President Donald Trump said in a news conference about an hour after the numbers were released. He pointed specifically to a sharp drop in the unemployment for Blacks that fell from 16.8% to 15.4%. “These are historic numbers.”

Historic numbers but this is what Maddow calls “terrible” with a smile? How does she still have a show with being wrong so often?
Of course, just like with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, some Democrats think it is terrible when America does well because they’d rather we all go down suffering if it meant they would win the election. Perhaps that’s what Maddow meant. If so, that says even more about her.
