White House press secretary Sarah Sanders issued a rare correction Tuesday night after falsely declaring that President Donald Trump has created three times as many jobs for African-American workers as former President Barack Obama did during his two terms in office.


While it's true that the US economy has added about 700,000 jobs held by African American workers since Trump took office, it added about 3 million black jobs while Obama was in office, according federal labor statistics.
Sarah Sanders apologizes for false claim about African-American jobs


Knock me over with a feather.....I am in shock that the Pathological LIAR Sarah Huckster Sanders, admitted she gave "false information"~ FAKE NEWS. This is a F-I-R-S-T for her!

ALL FAKE NEWS ORIGINATES from Trump or his spokes-people!

She wasn't the only one. I heard other right wing blowhards claimed the same thing.

Well, that is one lie down, and 100,000,000,000 more that they need to correct. But it is a start, I guess.

Yeah, it turns out Trump has only added 3 times as many jobs for black Americans at the same point in their presidencies. We don't know yet how much more Trump will help the African American community by the end of his second term compared to Obama.

Poor choice of words. She should have simply pointed out that at approximately this time in Obama's presidency the black UE rate was over 15%, while it is now at 5.9% at the same point in Trump's.

SHS admits to lying.

Sanders claimed only 195,000 jobs for blacks were created under Obama. The real number was just under THREE MILLION.

since the fascist liberals are always concerned with the term RATE...


At this RATE, Trump will have created 3 times as many jobs (in 8 years) for blacks as the lamebrain Obozo did in his 8 years

But Trump too office not when the economy was tanking but when it had seen 76 months of positive job growth. He's riding the wave.

There is not one single policy that specifically was targeted to improve employment numbers for minorities.

We had a terrible recession and have been on a slow steady growth for about 8 years....Trump is riding that wave.....he didn't blow it....YEAH.

Let's see if prices can stop going up, wages can go up more and if we can see some significant expansion.

Here in South Carolina there has been no or marginal growth from any Trump policy.

All jobs added in the last year and a half were from expansions that were announced in 2014 and plants finally being constructed and built in 2018. You could argue Trump is getting Obama numbers (but I don't really believe that because I can't identify any specific Obama policy that encouraged Volvo to decide to build a plant in the area that would add 3,000 jobs and I most DEFINITELY can't think of any Trump policy that did that either....but I can identify tariffs as being the reason Volvo says they are scaling back from their original job growth numbers because of the trade war).
