People do take issue with trump claiming credit for unemployment reduction that Obama did.

technically unemployment has stayed the same throughout both of their presidencies, however the bureau of labor statistics no longer considers people unemployed once they give up looking for work.
Is this an assumption or was it actually measured somehow? Hundreds of thousands of new jobs. New persons entering the labor force. People getting laid off. What is the range of error? 10,000 persons? 1,000,000 persons?
Are you seriously making the case that the number of people who have stopped looking for work has risen by more than 12,000,000 people since Obama took office?
