Summary
The U.S. added 256,000 jobs in December, lowering the unemployment rate to 4.1%, outperforming expectations and reflecting a resilient labor market as President Biden leaves office.
Despite earlier inflation overshadowing a strong labor recovery post-COVID, hiring remains steady, layoffs subdued, and job openings rising.
Forecasters predict gradual hiring growth in 2025, with small-business optimism and easing Federal Reserve policies driving gains.
Economic indicators, like increased consumer borrowing for auto purchases, suggest mixed but improving confidence.

I’m assuming idiot Americans will do what they always do and blame the party that is historically better for our economy, has a voting record of voting in favor of the middle/lower classes, hasn’t stripped half of Americans of a federally protected human right, and has WAY less convicted criminals in their ranks.
Americans = Stupid
As is tradition, they will blame Democrats for the effects of policies chosen by Republicans
