Ten Days Into Biden's Administration, And The Differences Are Crystal Clear

@Strictgram Show me which "thousands" are now jobless?

Biden has a long way to go to match Trump. He'd have to lose 20,000 jobs every week for his entire term to beat Trump, the only president in the last 80 years to have negative job creation. Even Bush 43 did better.

@windinhishair “Projected” job losses.

@Strictgram so, a few thousand temporary jobs outweighs the sovereignty of our native Americans land? And the idea of destroying our federal land is worth a few extra barrels of oil, a few ounces of precious metal? There is ample private land for that.
Our generation dying off is the best thing that will happen to this country. We (this is a generalization) have zero foresight.

@LeopoldBloom Biden's focus on clean energy will add US jobs that are well-paying. If we had just kept up with the renewable energy field that we led the world in under Carter, instead of destroying it for the next 25 years under Reagan, we'd still lead the world. Instead, the EU and China do.

As you know, we have to look at the totality of jobs created and lost to have a full picture of a President's impacts on the job market and the economy.

@Carla In TrumpWorld, the Cult latches onto anything they perceive as a negative, without fact and/or context. That way, they drive the Cult forward.

You haven't heard? It's all the comedians and bloggers who were making fun of Trump's Twitter rants. Those jobs evaporated overnight.

@windinhishair Trump had the best economy the world has ever seen until the China virus appeared. You conveniently left that out.

@windinhishair and I dont suppose it can really be accurate when this unchecked virus is running rampant, mutating and generally thumbing its nose at us.
I dont get why people are so adverse to rebuilding our energy infrastructure to run cleanly and safely.
There will be more jobs than people willing to do them.

@windinhishair but they come across as just moronic.

@Strictgram the best the world has ever seen? Go look at real numbers, from history.

Trump added more to the nations debt than any other potus. Before the pandemic.
And his mishandling of the pandemic has brought our citizenry to its knees.
The wealthy are getting wealthier though. Is that what you mean by best?

@Strictgram That's a lie. We've had better economies many times in the past. But even so, ignoring and denying the virus and doing nothing to counter it toward the end of his failed term doesn't give him a pass for having arguably the worst economy since 1946. That's just fact--an inconvenient one for you, I'll admit, but fact nonetheless.

@windinhishair have you checked the union keystone pipeline workers? That’s 11,000 right there

@windinhishair Tell is exactly how those jobs were lost by Trump when it’s the democrats in the large cities that closed everything down, and which cities had the largest amount of deaths from COVID-19? I’ll tell you, those same democrat run ones

@Prison1203 11000 that were temporary. Not to mention they should never have been there to begin with.

@Prison1203 Wow, you can't even accept statistics on Trump's poor economy. No sense talking to someone like you.

@Carla [quote]11000 that were temporary. Not to mention they should never have been there to begin with.

It's more like they never existed. This would have been 11,000 temporary jobs, IF and WHEN things got started and only if all the planets are lined up properly.

The company's own report and the US Department of Energy clearly state that the net WOULD have been 35 full time jobs.

But this whole thing started when someone on Facebook said 11,000 jobs, and that grew in some posts to 83,000 jobs.

In their minds, all these jobs existed, people were getting paychecks, and spending it in their local communities. And then, POOF, they've all lost their jobs with the single stroke of pen!

@Northwest in my mind, there could have been one million, well paying, full time, lifetime positions, people working as we speak, and they would have all been illegitimate.
Biden did not just do the right thing, but the only thing.
I'm very pleased that was top of his list.

@Carla The Keystone Pipeline was an abomination that has been corrected, as necessary.

@windinhishair !!

@Strictgram [quote]Doubt the thousands that have lost their jobs would agree[/quote] who are these thousands? Are they real or just in your mind? And how do they compare with the many many thousands who have lost jobs, suffered and/or died because of Trump's mishandling of the economy and the pandemic?

@Strictgram Biden has been president for a week, evidently you've forgotten all the jobs Trump lost the years he was in office.

@JeanAnna The final job loss toll under Trump was 4 million lost jobs. He has lost the most American jobs of any president in the past 80 years. Biden would have to serve a full term and lose more than 20,000 jobs every single week for four years to surpass Trump. The 35 permanent jobs lost for the Keystone XL Pipeline amount to a little over 18 minutes of Trump's colossal job losses. And those 35 will be able to get infrastructure and/or renewable energy jobs that pay more.

@Adaydreambeliever Do you want me to give you their names and addresses? Get real. Have you heard of the China virus? Do you think that had anything to do with job losses? What was the unemployment rate before the Wuhan virus?

@Strictgram There are only 35 permanent jobs associated with the pipeline. They won't take up much space. You can just list the names and addresses here.

The China Virus name is more appropriately the Trump Virus after he bungled his approach to keeping his nation safe more than almost every other nation on earth. The US has the most deaths and most cases of any nation, and even if you normalize the data to population, the US is fourth worst. But that's to be expected from someone completely inept and incompetent.

You don't end a baseball game in the fifth inning or a football game at the half if you are ahead and call it a win, after you get hammered in the last part of the game and lose hugely. Trump's complete mismanagement of the coronavirus means he is responsible for his actions and the following economic decline that continued on his watch, and continues after his spectacular electoral loss. Trump created far more job losses than any president in the last 80 years, and GDP growth was a negative 3.5% in his last year--the worst since 1946. He owns it, forever.

You sure love to love your posts.

Funny thing about the China Virus, it's actually the Covid-19, so you should fix your vocabulary. More to the point though, we had zero cases before the pandemic kicked in. China had zero cases as well prior to the pandemic.

Yet, here we are, a year later, all under Trump's leadership. Our economy tanked, China's economy grew by 2.3%. Digest that.
