On the Firing of the Bureau of Labor Statistics Commissioner

Editor,

I am wondering if someone told our current president that his pants were unzipped, the Trump/Miller administration would have him fired. Last week he terminated a high level bureaucrat that brought some accurate but bad news regarding unemployment numbers. There is the old saying about “don’t shoot the messenger”. At one of the earliest signs of their catastrophic economic policies, Trump fires the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics. She delivered bad news AND she was a woman. That’s like getting mad at your neighbor who tells you your house is a on fire. Pretty stupid! As China takes advantage of this continuing stupidity and leaves us in the dust on the world stage the Trump gang are going to be left there with their finger in their ear. Not listening to his generals is why the Russians finally over ran Hitler’s Germany, and leveled Berlin.
