President Bill Clinton at DNC: Democrats Are Better at Job Creation


Recommended Posts

 “Since the end of the Cold War in 1989, America has created about 51 million new jobs—about 50 million under Democrats and 1 million under Republicans,” he said, adding that he fact-checked that number three times. “Coach Walz will tell ya, if you’re up 50 to 1, you’re winning.”

He said if anyone wanted more affordable housing, affordable health care and more financing for small businesses, as well as strengthening “our alliances and democracy around world,” they should vote for Harris. But if anyone wanted to pay tribute to the “late great” Hannibal Lecter, then Trump is your guy. That wasn’t the only swipe at the Republican candidate, former President Donald Trump, who keeps talking about the fictional serial killer and even mentioned “The Silence of the Lambs” in his acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention last month.

Why Clinton's claim that Democratic presidents created more jobs than Republicans is slightly misleading

 

Since January 1989, the U.S. has added 51.5 million jobs, U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data shows. During Democratic administrations, the nation has added nearly 50 million of those jobs. By contrast, Republican presidents have overseen the creation of some 1.5 million jobs over that period, according to BLS data.
