Actually, Employment and the Economy Are Humming Along Nicely
On Donald Trump’s watch – before the pandemic – the economy added only 188,000 jobs per month.
President Barack Obama did better than that
once the collapsing economy he inherited turned around in early 2010; more than 200,000 jobs per month on average were added.
Looking at Trump’s entire time in office, his jobs performance was genuinely awful.
On Trump’s watch, the economy lost an average of 2.8 million jobs per month.
That’s primarily because in March and April of 2020 the economy lost 22.4 million jobs. but that was mostly The Trump-Made Pandemic
Since Ronald Reagan assumed office four decades ago,
only one president has added an average of more than 235,000 jobs a month.
That was Bill Clinton. During Clinton’s eight years, the economy added an average of 242,000 jobs per month.
