When Donald Trump left office at noon on January 20th, 2021 this year, there were nearly 3
million fewer jobs in the United States than there were when he was sworn in on January
20th, 2017.
He is the first president in 90 years to leave office with fewer jobs than when he came in.
The last president who saw a net loss of jobs throughout their administration was Herbert
Hoover who left office in 1933.
And shortly after Hoover was sworn in as president, you know, not long after that is when the
stock market crash happened 1929, uh, the year who, uh, Hoover became president.
So that kind of kick-started the great depression.
So yes, Hoover leaving office with a net loss of jobs historically.
Yeah, we, we, we understand that, um, and bad policies and all that, but Donald Trump,
he really had no excuse.
And I know people automatically are thinking, but the pandemic sure.
But the pandemic, but it's also his horrid response to the pandemic that caused so many
jobs to be lost his refusal to take action.
His refusal to be a leader is what helped create the massive job losses that we saw
from the pandemic.
But that's only a, a small piece of the puzzle.
And it's probably a big piece of the puzzle.
I'll give him that.
It's a big piece of the puzzle, but it's not the whole puzzle itself.
That's not the big picture about his trade Wars.
Why doesn't anybody ever seem to remember the frigging trade Wars?
That that absolutely drives me insane trade Wars that have not ended as of this point
trade Wars that cost us jobs, that scent farm bankruptcies skyrocketing here in the United
States to the point where I believe what was the number.
They 40% of farm income over the last two years came in the form of aid from the federal
government.
We're paying them billions of dollars a year because Donald Trump screwed their industry.
So that hurt jobs.
His steel tariffs hurt jobs, his inability to do what he tried to do when he came into
office and I'm going to save these companies, I'm going to prevent them from moving to Mexico.
Oops, didn't do that either.
He failed across the board.
He failed to keep jobs here.
He failed to protect the jobs that he swore weren't going to be, uh, impacted by his trade
war.
And of course his failures across the board with the pandemic, gave him the worst jobs
record of a president in 90 fricking years.
So here's why I want to talk about this other than the fact that that is something we need
to know.
This man still worshiped as a God by the Republicans, you still see them on social media saying
he's the best president ever.
And to that, I honest to God want an answer by what metric, by what metric did this man
do a single thing that could be construed as good for real.
What did he do?
We now know as job records was the worst in 90 years, few people alive today have ever
seen a worst president handled the job situation during their tenure.
Very few people in this country were alive at the time when Hoover did it, he bungled
the pandemic trade war still raging.
We, I have no idea what Biden's plan is to, to button all that up, who knows, but the
man was a failure by every single metric.
Every way you look at it, failure, failure, failure, failure.
And you still have these brain dead conservatives out there saying that he was the best president
ever.
So I legitimately would love to have an answer as to why they think that is because the numbers
don't back it up.
So if you think he's still the best probably has something to do with his treatment of,
uh, you know, people that are white.
