Since 1920, Democratic Presidencies Created 300% More Jobs and
Trump Has the Worst Jobs Record Since Herbert Hoover:
Democrats Create Jobs: The GOP Creates Boom and Bankrupt Economies
The other day, Joe Biden pointed out that the US economy has lost 4.7 million jobs since Donald Trump took office. What he didn’t say (and Democrats say far too infrequently) is that, [MEME] over the past century, Democrats are 300% better at creating jobs than Republicans!
That’s a shocking figure for most people, most of whom still think that Republicans are better for the economy, but, in the 100 years [MEME] since 1920, Democratic Administrations have created 85 million jobs and Republican Presidencies only 28 million jobs. This is a staggering difference that should put to rest forever the argument about whether Democrats or Republicans are better for the economy!
How big is the difference in job creation between Democratic Presidents and Republican Presidents?
Compared to the Republicans, since 1920 Democrat Administrations created:
56,997,000 more jobs—(85,046,000 DEM jobs versus 28,049,000 GOP jobs).
That’s 300% more jobs for Americans than Republicans created.
Over [MEME] 1.2 million more U.S. jobs per year:
(1,771,792 Democratic jobs per year versus 541,171 yearly GOP jobs.)
Over [MEME] 100,000 more new jobs per month:
(Monthly, that’s 147,649 Democratic jobs versus 45,098 GOP jobs.) And Democratic Presidencies create more jobs because:
The GOP’s borrow and bribe policies crash stocks…. (1929, 1987, 2008, 2020).
Then GOP stock market crashes tank the economy and jobs: (1929, 2008, 2020.)
To be fair, fiscal moderates Eisenhower, Nixon and Ford, who did not practice voodoo economics, did not crash the economy, but their job results were so-so. Reagan produced a lot of jobs but also the stock market crashed in 1987 and the country suffered ongoing doldrums until Bill Clinton revitalized the economy and become the last president to balance the yearly Federal Deficit.
Before him, Johnson balanced 1 budget, Eisenhower balanced 1 budget and Truman balanced 4 budgets. For comparison, the Federal Deficit has gone up every year under Trump, hit $984 Billion in 2019 and this year, the Covid-Denier’s 2020 budget deficit is projected to be around [MEME] an almost incomprehensible $3.3 TRILLION Deficit in 2020…for a four-year total of [MEME] $5.728 Trillion Dollars—the worst four-year increase of US Debt in history.
This is not new news, but, for Democrats, it is hugely under-discussed information. That’s why one poll just showed Trump up 10% on perceived ability to handle the economy. This should not be! [MEME] DEMOCRATS PRODUCE 300% MORE JOBS!!
But Democrats have to quit playing defense and start strongly showing, again and again (Nancy Pelosi, Katie Porter and Alexandria Cortsio-Cortez can we please have your meme generators focus on this?) how much better Democrats have been for job gains, debt control and prosperity for the Middle Class and Poor over the last 100 years…because THIS IS THE BIGGEST AND MOST DAMAGING REPUBLICAN LIE. Republicans are not great for the economy: At best Republican economic results are mediocre and, if, like Hoover, Bush 2 and Trump, they practice the borrow and burn tactics of Reaganomics, they are as disastrous at managing economies as our 6 bankrupcy, 3500 lawsuit, 3 wives, 20,000 lies, deceiver-in-chief was in his unending string of failed businesses…and yet they continue to win elections on their perceived economic superiority.
However, sometimes the Big Lie doesn’t work, because someone, some Party, and then a lot of someones, refuse to accept the lie and continue to pull back the curtain. And 2020 is the time to destroy this lie forever.
Here are some more good resources that show how naked the Emperor and the rest of his Republican enablers truly are:
Bill Clinton’s 2012 DNC Speech GREAT!: “Well since 1961, the Republicans have held the White House 28 years, the Democrats 24. In those 52 years, our economy produced 66 million private sector jobs. What's the jobs score? Republicans 24 million, Democrats 42 million!”
