In contrast to President Biden’s 367,000 manufacturing jobs, Trump, who lied throughout his presidency about manufacturing jobs, was less effective than Biden.
According to CNN, “As of February, 483,000 manufacturing jobs had been added during Trump’s presidency. As of the most recent data, from August, 237,000 manufacturing jobs had been lost under Trump.”

By the next manufacturing jobs report, it is very possible that Biden will have already passed Trump. President Biden is leading the manufacturing revival that Trump talked about, lied about, and misled on for his entire presidency.
Jo Biden came into office with a plan to rebuild American manufacturing, and the pandemic has made domestic manufacturing a priority. Because COVID caused supply chain issues, companies see the value of making things in America.
The United States is poised for its best manufacturing numbers in decades, and that turnout will be attributable to President Biden and Democrats in Congress.
