President Donald Trump delivered major news on Friday morning from the White House on the economy and where things are headed with tariffs that he’s placed on several nations.
During remarks in the Oval Office, the president praised the latest jobs report, forecasted the future economic outlook amid a tariff war, and with more federal layoffs looming.
One massive data point came when Trump noted that in the February jobs report, native born workers jumped by 284,000 and foreign-born workers lost 87,000 jobs. Trump highlighted the importance of more Americans getting jobs in the country.
“For the first time in fifteen months, the job gains for native-born Americans exceeded the job gains for migrant and foreign workers. Employment for native-born workers went up by 284K while foreign-born workers went down by 87K,” Trump said.
“Look, our country has been ripped off by everybody, and that stops now… Canada, Mexico, the EU, and India are terrible abusers of our country,” he added.
“Globalists won’t love this because this brings jobs back to America… I think the United States is going to do records business. We’ll bring back a lot of those 90,000 factories that have been lost over the last number of years,” he said.
“Under the final two years of Biden, one in every four jobs created in America was a government job… But under the first full month of President Trump, an incredible 93% of all job gains were in the private sector,” Trump continued.
“During the last year, the Biden administration saw a loss of more than 110K manufacturing jobs or 9K manufacturing jobs every single month — During the first full month in office, we’ve not only stopped the manufacturing collapse, but we’ve begun to rapidly reverse it and get major gains,” he declared.
NEC Director Kevin Hassett: “A lot of people said that if you deported illegals, then employment would go down… And if you look, 280,000 American-born folks were hired, manufacturing jobs are going up… I suspect that this is going to be a glimpse of the Golden Age to come.”
