WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump unexpectedly summoned reporters to the Oval Office on Thursday to present them with charts that he says show the U.S. economy is solid following a jobs report last week that raised red flags and led to the Republican firing the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

President Trump fired the head of BLS after accusing the bureaucrat of revising downward recent monthly job tallies to make him look bad.

During Oval Office meeting pro-Trump economist Steve Moore says the president made the right call to fire the head of Bureau of Labor Statistics given wildly faulty jobs projections.
