. . . We haven't had a president trying to bring industry back to the US since Carter left office

Then there is the truth.


''Our immediate priority must be to create jobs -- create jobs now. . .
. To create jobs and guarantee a strong recovery, I call on Congress
to enact an immediate package of jobs investments over $30 billion to
put people to work now to create a half a million jobs: jobs to rebuild
our highways and airports, to renovate housing, to bring new life to
rural communities and spread hope and opportunity among our nation's
youth.''   - President Bill Clinton - Feb., 1993

Trump Jobs Growth -- Slower than Obama's

We could ask Dino which is the larger number.

Dino? Which is larger? 185 or 215?

Average monthly jobs growth:

1st 16 months of Trump --- 185K

last 16 months of Obama ---- 215K

Trickle Down and Jobs Creation

For those who say only private investment creates jobs, I ask:



Do you REALLY think the building of Hoover Dam didn't create jobs? What  about the Apollo Project? What about the TVA? What about the Interstate Highway system? 



Are you serious?

Job Growth

Compare jobs growth under Bush to jobs growth under Obama.
