July job report added 209,000 jobs
This may sound impressive to anyone who doesn't get the context, but a simple bench mark can provide a bit more clue on how the American economy did under his presidency
According to the monthly job report of July 2016 (which is done by the US bureau of labour statistics if I'm not wrong), under Obama's presidency, the economy recorded 291,000 new jobs
So 291,000 VS 209,000
That's a little awkward since he claims that he's bringing the economy back on track using this argument
Also, I did not dig into this, I hope this is the net gain, otherwise it's a totally redundant argument.
Edit: this is probably not the net gain since WSJ estimates that a minimum growth of 145K per month is needed to keep the job market expanding in the US, meaning that the net gain is roughly 64K, compared to Obama's 146K, that's less than a half of what his predecessor did. This dude doesn't know the meaning of awkward.
