They're revisions that shouldn't have to be made, if the data were collected correctly in the first place. Multiple economists said this in the above two articles I posted. What Antoni brings to BLS is an intention and prioity to improve how BLS collects these monthly statistics from businesses.
And economist Steve Moore and others cite that Trump didn't "lie", but that the statistics given were in fact wrong, in fact way off, and quite possibly off for a Democrat-partisan politically motivated reason, since the numbers consistently benefited Biden, and now consistently downplay Trump's OBVIOUS pro-business policies and growth. That McEntarfer's numbers consisently downplay, and then quiely report the correct numbers later, when the media is no longer covering them.

Just like how Jerome Powell refuses to lower interest rates, despite Europe looking at the improving economic numbers and lowering EU rates 8 times in the same period, while Jerome Powell just sits on his hands.

There's no evidence Trump "won't tolerate" bad numbers, he just wants undisputably ACCURATE numbers, that all sides can trust, whether they are good or bad for Trump himself. And what he saw in McEntarfer's consistently wrong numbers, is a scenario very much like that that of Jerome Powell.
And you have no basis beyond pure slander to say that Antoni will be " a partisan that I’m sure will deliver fake ones that nobody will take seriously."
