Trump: Overseas Trip Has Saved “Millions of Jobs”

by EarnestTheriot Posted on May 26, 2017

Mother Jones

Donald Trump claims that his world trip this week has saved millions of jobs. Millions!

A White House official said Trump was not talking just about the Saudi deals but “benefits to trade from the entire trip from Saudi Arabia to the G7.” He noted that “any improvement on trade would save many jobs. Stopping even one bad trade deal can save millions. Changing the infrastructure of global trade to tilt it back toward the U.S. would save and create millions.”

Hmmm. Barack Obama made 52 overseas trips during his presidency, and employment climbed 12 million during the same period. That’s about 200,000 jobs per trip. Trump says he’s responsible for millions just in one trip. That’s pretty remarkable, no? But Trump is a remarkable man.
