As the Democrats continue to complain loudly that President Donald Trump is destroying Biden’s economy, the latest jobs numbers show that the reverse is happening — Trump’s economic moves are driving the economy to new heights.
In the month of May, job creation surpassed expectations, with 139,000 new jobs added — beating the 125,000 forecast by a wide margin, and the unemployment rate holding steady at 4.2%, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Even more impressive? All of this growth came from the private sector — not bloated government hiring. Private industry is expanding, while government employment continues to shrink.
But how could this be? The Democrats and the corporate media keep telling us that Trump’s policies are sabotaging Biden’s beautifully-built economy… so why is it GROWING?
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt celebrated the numbers as a resounding indication that Trump’s economic agenda is not just working — it’s surpassing expectations.
“President Trump’s America First Economic Agenda has created a BOOMING economy — jobs are up, unemployment is down, wages are increasing, and inflation is dead,” she wrote on social media.
“More than 139,000 good jobs were added to the private sector in May, all accounted for by American-born workers. Americans should continue to Trust in President Trump, who continues to beat expectations.”
And this isn’t just a one-month fluke. This is quickly becoming a trend under Trump’s second term. Last month, job growth also surged past forecasts, all while the left continued its doom-and-gloom campaign to convince Americans that things were falling apart.
Leading the job surge: health care (+62,000), leisure and hospitality (+48,000), and social assistance (+16,000). Meanwhile, federal government employment dropped by 22,000 — music to the ears of anyone tired of D.C. bloat, especially for conservatives who’ve spent years watching the federal bureaucracy weaponize itself against them.
Best of all, the backbone of the U.S. economy — small businesses — are behind much of this boom. These are the very same businesses that were pummeled by bad Biden-era policies.
“The small business economy is growing and the private economy is growing. This is exactly what Donald Trump wanted to do to reverse everything that Biden had done,” said Job Creators Network CEO Alfredo Ortiz. “It’s so good to see that we’re actually creating private economy jobs again.”
President Trump also chimed in on Truth Social:
“GREAT JOB NUMBERS, STOCK MARKET UP BIG! AT THE SAME TIME, BILLIONS POURING IN FROM TARIFFS!!!”
The only dark cloud in this otherwise sunny report is that the Federal Reserve — which seems desperate to undercut Trump’s economic rescue mission — now has more ammunition to delay cutting rates.
Trump addressed that too:
“AMERICA IS HOT! SIX MONTHS AGO IT WAS COLD AS ICE! BORDER IS CLOSED, PRICES ARE DOWN. WAGES ARE UP!”
“If ‘Too Late’ at the Fed would CUT, we would greatly reduce interest rates, long and short, on debt that is coming due. Biden went mostly short term,” he continued. “There is virtually no inflation (anymore), but if it should come back, RAISE ‘RATE’ TO COUNTER. Very Simple!!! He is costing our Country a fortune. Borrowing costs should be MUCH LOWER!!!”
If Fed Chair Jerome Powell weren’t so clearly biased against Trump, the American economy could be even STRONGER than it already is.
