President Trump's First Year Of Job Growth Was Below President Obama's Last Four Years
On Friday the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that the economy added 148,000 nonfarm jobs in December but only 139,000 when the revisions for October and November are included. A better way to understand how the job market is doing is to include the revisions and look at a multi-month average. This is especially important due to the impact of Hurricanes Harvey and Irma since September only added 38,000 jobs.
Updated BLS information now has Trump now only being behind Obama's last 4 years vs. 6.
These are the original and updated numbers.
2011: 2.091 million
2012: 2.142 million
2013: 2.302 million
2014: 2.998 millon
2015: 2.713 million
2016: 2.240 million
2017 original: 2.046 million
2017 updated: 2.188 million
