        President Obama was still in office in November 2016. He departed on January 20, 2017. Shouldn’t that be your starting point? 🤔

        They are second and third jobs and low paying. Jobs report should not count second and third jobs.

        My cite was from the same source. That's the articles cite! "The economy lost 8.7 million jobs as a result of the 2008 financial crisis. It kept shedding them until January 2010. Since that low point, Obama created 22.309 million jobs, a 17.2 percent increase. "

        If you take this chart and add and subtract the monthly job totals from February 2009 to January 2017, the total is 11.64 million.pic.twitter.com/XVAN9x9Buf

        The point is a fairer assessment is to exclude the financial crisis and the bleeding out of jobs that were a direct result of Bush's policies. Obama's first year in office had a budget that was already implemented by Bush

        I understand but unfortunately you have to include the months during the recession. BTW, I'm a supporter of Obama and I think he did a great job as POTUS.
