President Joe Biden—in just a few magical weeks, I can retire that title—is no longer fooling Americans with his bogus claim that he created more jobs during his term than President-elect Donald Trump.
On Wednesday, after spending the entire day strolling through the liberal playground of Nantucket, Biden— or should I say, his handlers— took to social media to tout his economic “achievements.”
“Over 1.6 million construction and manufacturing jobs have been created on my watch,” he tweeted.
Over 1.6 million construction and manufacturing jobs have been created on my watch.

However, this is just one of many lies peddled by the outgoing president.
In reality, an August report found that there have been 115,000 fewer manufacturing jobs and 45,000 fewer construction jobs since Biden took office—flash forward three months, and that number is likely higher.
On the contrary, just three years into Trump’s first term in office, the construction industry created 713,000 jobs, while the manufacturing industry added 524,000 jobs. Macro Edge pointed out that construction job openings fell by 51,000 from June to July, below January 2007. At the same time, the employment rate was nearly at its lowest level in 50 years.
Biden’s economy hit a 40-year high inflation rate. Listen, Joe, you don’t have to keep spewing the propaganda. You don’t have to do this anymore. It’s done, you lost. It's over.
However, even if Biden’s claims were valid, many people have pointed out these jobs went to the tens of millions of illegal immigrants who he let enter the country.
Yeah? I work construction and manufacturing. Most of the jobs “created” were bullshit government office workers. Not tradesmen. You’re full of shit and will continue to be full of shit.

Donald Trump lost more jobs than you created just in those industries and he’s gonna do it again.

How many of the “job gains” under your administration went to illegals? How many were government jobs?

Over 800k fictitious jobs were created as well. Remember that??
