A couple days ago, I posted jobs numbers from the past 6 presidents, 3 Republican (Bush I, Bush II, and Trump) and 3 Democratic (Clinton, Obama, and Biden). Over 20 years, nearly 50 million jobs were added under the 3 Democratic presidents, whereas only 2 million have been added under the aforementioned Republicans, over the course of 17 years, 8 months. A good percentage of MAGA responders said something along the lines of, "The Democrat Party only added government jobs! Look at the private sector!" Very well. First, let's look at public sector or government jobs. George H.W. Bush (R, 4 years): +1.127M Bill Clinton (D, 8 years): +1.934M George W. Bush (R, 8 years): +1.744M Barack Obama (D, 8 years): -263k Donald Trump I (R, 4 years): -575k Joe Biden (D, 4 years): +1.816M Donald Trump II (R, 1 year, 8 months): -230k Democratic Presidents (20 years): +3.487M Republican Presidents (17 years, 8 months): +2.066M Difference: Democrats +1.421M/Republicans -1.421M Not much difference. Now let's move onto the private sector. George H.W. Bush (R, 4 years): +1.502M Bill Clinton (D, 8 years): +20.979M George W. Bush (R, 8 years): -368k Barack Obama (D, 8 years): +11.812M Donald Trump I (R, 4 years): -2.19M Joe Biden (D, 4 years): +13.589M Donald Trump II (R, 1 year, 8 months): +1.006M Democratic Presidents (20 years): +46.380M Republican Presidents (17 years, 8 months): -50k Difference: Democrats +46.430M/Republicans -46.430M That's right, over the past 37 years, 8 months, Republican presidents are actually underwater, as far as private-sector jobs go, whereas Democrats are 46 million+ above it. No matter what the GOP tries to sell you on the old, tired narrative that they're better for the economy, the numbers tell a completely different story. #VoteBlue2026 #VoteBlue26 data.bls.gov/pdq/SurveyOutpu… fred.stlouisfed.org/series/U…
