“Manufacturing
“In the eight years before I took office, on average we lost 2,000 manufacturing jobs a month. Since my inauguration, we’ve added 16,000 manufacturing jobs a month. That didn’t happen by accident.”
Facts First: Trump’s figures were basically accurate. The number of manufacturing jobs dropped from 12,561,000 when Obama took office in January 2009 to 12,355,000 in December 2016, a decline of 206,000 jobs - more than 2,100 per month.
It’s worth noting, however, that the decline occurred during the recession Obama inherited. Between January 2009 and December 2009, the economy shed nearly 1.1 million manufacturing jobs. From January 2010 until December 2016, it added 895,000 manufacturing jobs.”
Again with the “poor Obama had a recession to deal with” lame excuse.
Doesn’t address the FACT that it was Obama’s job and industry killing policies and regulations that KEPT that recession going longer than it should have.
I mean honestly, weren’t these the same people lambasting Bush 6 years after the recession caused by 9/11? And yet somehow Obama gets a pass for an EIGHT year recession?
Unreal. And they wonder why people started chanting “CNN sucks” at that rally! The unmitigated arrogance of these people!
CNN fact checkers do not compare Trump’s statements to actual facts. They believe that they already know the facts and therefore do not need to look them up.
Jeez, I thought everyone knew this.
Gee, I guess The Donald is slipping. Last time I checked, CNN said he had said 10,000 lies over the past few years.
Maybe he should hire the Hillary Lying Machine to help him regain the pace. /SARC
CNN: When you want to know about “lying”, they are the master to come to!
Anything Trump says that is not in agreement with CNN, they call a lie. He will have to up his game, I will laugh when they say he lied 100% of the time!
CNN doesn’t know any facts.
Not true... they got stung last night.. they do 15 in a minute... they see what they want to see..
Trump: “The United States is now the number-one producer of oil and natural gas anywhere in the world.”
CNN: “The United States has been the world’s top producer of natural gas since 2011... It is crude oil production in particular in which the US became top in the world under Trump”
So #1 on the list of “false statements” is actually a true statement? What is wrong with CNN do they no longer have anyone there who understands English?
FAKE NEWS!
They are pedantic fools arguing over the number of angels that can dance on the head of a pin. Trump laid out a big picture of the huge successes this administration has had. Who cares if we produced one barrel of oil too few in 2016 to claim we are #1 in energy?
After all, it was Obama himself who promised to bankrupt utilities if they tried to build a coal plant, who said “you can’t drive your SUV 70 mph and expect other countries to be ok with that,” and said “under my plan, energy prices will necessarily skyrocket.”
All Obama energy policies flowed from those ideas. How can they claim Obama made us an energy leader when he fought it tooth and nail?
How many were in Obama’s speech in Brazil a few days ago? Machineguns being bought everywhere by Americans over the internet, etc!
CNN cares about facts... BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
CNN fact check:
Now that’s funny!
The mentally ill CNN fake newsies were EXTREMELY EXTREMELY depressed and negative last night—I loved it!!
They know Trump had a FANTASTIC rally last night, and the Rat clown car woosies are going to be DESTROYED by Trump.
I think several of the CNN mental patients are literally on suicide watch right now. I hope so, bwaahhh hah hah hah!!!!
