evidence: Employment under Trump was positive until the economy lost 20.5 million jobs in April 2020, as efforts to slow the spread of the novel coronavirus led to business closures and layoffs. By the time Trump left office in January 2021, employment had partly rebounded, but was still 9.4 million jobs below the February 2020 peak, according to the official figures from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. In a Feb. 3 post on X, formerly known as Twitter, Biden said, "The last guy had the worst jobs record since the Great Depression," including a chart that showed a monthly average loss of 57,000 jobs under Trump. "Our record is a little different," Biden boasted, with his graphic revealing a monthly average growth of 409,000 jobs under his presidency. (We actually calculate the average at 411,000.) [...] The comparison in Biden’s chart is "unfair," Douglas Holtz-Eakin, an economist, president of the "center-right" American Action Forum and a former director of the Congressional Budget Office, told us, noting the more than 20 million jobs lost in April 2020. "That’s 10 times more than we have ever lost in a single month." That wasn’t "Trump’s fault."
