It's very very very good. It's a monster report. It doesn't just beat the expectation, it blew it. 250,000 jobs, well ahead estimates of 190,000. The wage gains jumped past 3 percent for the first time since the Great Recession.
Given this excellent economic situation, R should have had a slam dunk win, But seems they're going to lose. Have to give D's anti-Trump propaganda credits, influencing voters by ideology instead by evidence.

We were headed down. By his second term he added more jobs per year than Trump has in his first year. Look it up in bureau of labor stats.
Trump is surfing the wave.

Any conservative could have come in with some common sense policies and looked like a rock star.
Got it.
