MACDONALD: Trump’s Take on Joe Biden’s Three Letter Word – “Jobs”

I say it often, and you can quote me. It’s easy to break things. Fixing them is a lot harder. It takes longer. And while Obama broke stuff, whoever was running the Biden Administration wrecked a lot more. Add to that an unprecedented effort to realign the American economy, fix unfair trade deals, break the globalist death grip on a dying America, and create real jobs, and it doesn’t happen overnight.

It may take years, but people are impatient, and when Trump promised action on day one, they were led to believe it would be like flipping a switch. I don’t blame them for wondering where the promised prosperity is, but two points on that. First, it’s coming. Second, when Democrats make promises pointing towards more jobs and prosperity, they mean government jobs (that cost you more money) and their own prosperity. And by them I mean their politicians, lobbying groups, NGOs, and globalist buddies.

The past two Democratic presidents are proof of that.

The last Republican administration before this one lifted the economy out of Obama’s new normal to record heights, especially for employment. Blacks, women, youth, and every demographic achieved record job growth. Spoiler alert. The current Republican Administration is better than the last one.

Trump 2.0 is not just realigning the domestic and international economy to serve you; it is reimaging jobs. Joe Biden’s famous four-letter word. From Rapid Response 47 on X (that’s the Trump White House). Emphasis mine.

FACT: Since September, the private sector has gained 121,000 jobs — while the federal government has shed 168,000 jobs.

FACT: Since August, the private sector has added 225,000 jobs.

FACT: Federal employment is now at the lowest level in over a decade.

FACT: Real wages are on track to rise by 4.2% in the first full year of the Trump Administration — far outpacing inflation.

Yeah, we do still have H1-B issues to work out, and yes, we do have a shortage of skilled workers because we offshored more than manufacturing and national security under past administrations. Lots of moving parts, and plenty to bitch about, but read the bolded text again.

FACT: Since September, the private sector has gained 121,000 jobs — while the federal government has shed 168,000 jobs.

Government jobs are how the elites and the globalist left inflated their job numbers. But government jobs are a net drain on the economy. Since August, we have seen a 393,000 job shift away from the soul sucking, tax-chewing federal money pit toward real economic growth.

Real wages climbing 4.2% above inflation puts $1,000+ back in workers’ pockets annually—reversing Biden’s $3,000 wage erosion. Most crucially, 100% of job growth benefiting native-born Americans exposes the lie that mass immigration drives prosperity.

This isn’t just recovery—it’s a blueprint for sovereignty. Federal downsizing through initiatives like DOGE’s voluntary separation proves efficiency unlocks opportunity.

Pick at the frayed edges of the logic until you’re angry again, if that’s where you want to be, but how do you convince low information voters that what Biden broke takes time to fix, and all the base indicators tell us we’re on our way?

Need more fuel for that fire? Nothing the falling-sky left predicted happened. Nothing the banking class bemoaned came to pass. The globalists and deep staters who broke the economy to break you and then tried to censor you so you couldn’t complain are the people who would replace Republicans in 2026 and bring this progress to a screaming halt.

If 2026 reverses it all, it will be because we didn’t sell it, and we didn’t get people to the polls to protect not just an economic but a political revolution that could change America’s fortune for decades. Smaller government, bigger citizens!

Unless you don’t want a shot at something like that for yourself, your kids, or your grandkids.

We could go back to higher taxes, fewer opportunities, more criminal aliens, grooming, and a bigger, unresponsive government.

If that’s what you want.
