So unemployment goes down, labor participation doesn’t change much ( actually improved a bit) and that’s a bad thing? It’s getting better. It didn’t under Obama. The glass is half full - realize it.

At some time deep in the Obama-era darkness, when all the new 20 hrs./week jobs had us nearing "full employment", I tried to find official statistics for Avg. Weekly HOURS WORKED per Working-Age Adult. But I recall only for that month, not over some years. Not finding again now.

Was becoming more common then, too, that more people were dropping out of the workforce each month; incl. expanded disability. So more were NOT WORKING - but also not "seeking work" - and so the official Unemployment rates just kept looking better.
