The ABC News host took the administration to task for the president's firing of his stats boss.
ABC News host George Stephanopoulos says President Donald Trump's administration resembles the authoritarian regimes in Venezuela and Turkey after the president fired the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics. On Friday, the president fired BLS Commissioner Erika McEntarfer after the agency released its July jobs report showing that the economy added a mere 73,000 jobs last month—far fewer than the 109,000 jobs the White House forecasted. Trump claimed BLS had 'RIGGED' the numbers 'to make the Republicans, and ME, look bad.' 'Suppressing statisticians is a time-honored tool for leaders trying to solidify their power and stifle dissent,' Stephanopoulos said on Sunday's edition of This Week.
