Donald J. Trump, former President of the United States, made several posts on his Truth Social platform that were later shared on Twitter by an account dedicated to posting his updates. The tweets include references to a news community and claims regarding recent economic data.

On August 3, 2025, Trump’s message was posted as "President Trump News Community https://t.co/5FfcJDViG4". Another similar post appeared on August 4, 2025: "President Trump News Community https://t.co/2OS6MxJjCQ".

Later that day, a more detailed statement was published. On August 4, 2025, at 14:18 UTC, Trump wrote: "Donald J. Trump Truth Social 08.04.25 09:03 AM EST

Last weeks Job’s Report was RIGGED, just like the numbers prior to the Presidential Election were Rigged. That’s why, in both cases, there was massive, record setting revisions, in favor of the Radical Left Democrats. Those big".

The former president has previously criticized government-released economic data and questioned its accuracy during election cycles. Claims about manipulated job reports have surfaced periodically in U.S. political discourse but are typically refuted by economists and labor statisticians who cite transparent methodologies for employment statistics reporting.
