Pretty good for a president who inherited a deadly global pandemic with no vaccine and then had to deal with the Ukraine war and all that it did to wreak havoc on the global economy all the while being saddled with a do-nothing House of Representatives that tried to shackle him at every turn. Good job, Joe!

Let's dig a little deeper and look to the US Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics;
"The number of long-term unemployed (those jobless for 27 weeks or more), at 1.3 million, was little changed in January."
"The labor force participation rate, at 62.5 percent, was unchanged in January, and the employment-population ratio, at 60.2 percent, was little changed. These measures showed little or no change over the year."
"The number of people not in the labor force who currently want a job, at 5.8 million, was little changed in January."

Looks like many...if not most...of those "created jobs" are really people getting second jobs so they can afford to buy food, pay rent, put fuel in their car, pay utilities, etc.

America's poverty rate soared last year. Children were among the worst hit
CBS News By Aimee Picchi 9/12/23
Biggest poverty increase in over half a century
Millions of American families fell into poverty last year as the well of government-funded pandemic aid dried up and incomes shrank, according to new data from the U.S. Census. Children were particularly hard-hit, with the poverty rate for kids doubling compared with 2021. The surge in poverty is "stunning," Sharon Parrott, president of the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, said in a statement. Parrott pointed to the end of the expanded federal Child Tax Credit in 2022 as a cause of the sharp increase in child poverty and called for lawmakers to reinstate the benefit. The rise in poverty amounts to an increase of 15.3 million people around the U.S. living in poverty, according to the left-leaning think tank.
Homelessness in the U.S. hit a record high last year as pandemic aid ran out
NPR 12/15/23 by Jennifer Ludden
Homelessness in America spiked last year, reaching a record high, according to an annual count that provides a snapshot of one night in January. The report, released today by the department of Housing and Urban development, found more than 650,000 people were living in shelters or outside in tents or cars. That's up a whopping 12% from the year before.
FACTSHEET: FINAL FY23 NUMBERS SHOW WORST YEAR AT AMERICA’S BORDERS—EVER
Homeland Security October 26, 2023
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, the House Committee on Homeland Security released its latest “Startling Stats” factsheet outlining U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s (CBP) September and Fiscal Year (FY) 2023 border encounter data. In the final month of FY2023, CBP recorded 269,735 encounters at the Southwest border, marking another unprecedented milestone under Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and President Joe Biden’s open-borders policies. This monthly number also represents an 86% increase from June 2023, when the Biden administration celebrated a short-lived drop in illegal crossings following the end of Title 42.

BIDEN’S COSTLY POLICIES: How Biden’s Foreign Policy Failures Jeopardize Global Financial Security
House Budget Committee 10/9/23
The reckless foreign policy pushed by the Biden Administration has weakened our standing and emboldened our enemies. The botched Afghanistan withdrawal left over $7 billion worth of taxpayer-funded equipment, munitions, and military assets in the hands of the Taliban. The White House chose to resume sending financial assistance to the Palestinian Authority, resulting in over $200 million going directly to Gaza and the West Bank.The President’s failed policies have created an economic and political environment in the Middle East that runs counter to America’s strategic interests. These conditions – which currently are manifested by the horrific and barbaric war crimes being committed by the Hamas terrorists against Israel – not only hurt our allies in faraway lands, but they have a major impact on Americans right here at home.
Record Levels of Gun Violence and the Democrats’ Dilemma
Amid continued calls for police reform and a surge in firearm deaths, the Biden and Mayor Eric Adams are trying to balance public safety and politics.
New Yorker By David Rohde
Gun violence in the US is at record levels, and Democrats are under intense pressure to bring down violent crime while also curbing police abuse. More than 2/3 of the country’s largest cities, including the 3 largest—NY, LA, and Chicago—experienced an increase in homicides in 2021, a continuation of a surge in violence that some officials had hoped would fade as covid-19 lockdowns eased. Instead, homicides have also risen in smaller cities, such as Albuquerque, Austin, Columbus, Louisville, Nashville, Rochester, and Tucson.

It's not spin. If the number of long term unemployed changed little, the percentage of people who actually have a job didn't change and the percentage of people who aren't even looking for jobs changed little who is filling those "created jobs"? It must be people who already have jobs...there is nobody else available.

The largest welfare increase in history
Record for the highest gas prices in history
Highest inflation rate ever recorded in the US
The worst supply chain problems in US history
A war on cops under Biden
Majority of US believe Biden is incompetent
Majority of US believe Biden is corrupt
Does that about cover it?
I'm sure I must be missing something in such a deep pool of his failures!
Hard to believe there are still such brain-dead liberals here who are happily willing to ignore his record and vote for this turd again!!!
