The U.S. Labor Department reported the economy added 64,000 jobs in November and that the unemployment rate came in at 4.6%, it was 4.4% in October and 4% when President Biden left office. Unemployment is up on Trump and the GOP's watch and job creation is down big, neither of which surprises those who pay attention to facts and not the lies and misinformation. The Department also reported the economy loss 105,000 jobs in October and that August and September's numbers were adjusted down by 33,000 jobs. By all the belated counts by Trump's johnny come lately labor department, the economy has created approximately 560,000 jobs in Trump's first 11 months in office.
By contrast, in Biden's first 11 months in office over 5,000,000 jobs were created and unemployment was down 2.1%. It was 6.3% when he took office and 4.2% at the end of November 2021. In the 59 months Trump has been President Job creation is still in a negative position at close to 2,000,000 jobs lost. It continues the Trump and GOP record of being terrible at job creation and higher unemployment. The economy has lost jobs in June, August September and October in Trump's first 11 months of his current term. During Biden's 4 years, the economy did not suffer any job losses in any one month.
The media tried its best to talk down the economy on Biden's watch and pushed the GOP's narrative of Trump and the GOP's knowledge of the economy. It was a false narrative they were aware of but are still pushing it this very day of economic chaos and failure under Trump and his clowns. But Trump and his party's record of failure goes back over 60 years which was described in PolitiDose commentary for the past 11 years.
So stay tuned to PolitiDose, your daily dose of political commentary for the facts and turn off the broken media.
