Sunny with a Chance of Jobs: The February Jobs Report is Out

The Trump effect is in full swing, ladies and gents! After just one full month in office, our Donald in Chief has already added—and cut—jobs in some crucial areas.

The Daily Wire reports:

The report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics found that 151,000 jobs were added to the economy in February, including 10,000 new manufacturing jobs. Federal government jobs declined by 10,000 as the Trump administration has pushed to slash the size of the government bureaucracy.

“In one month under President Trump, the American economy is soaring back to greatness after the economic calamity left by Joe Biden,” White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said. “The manufacturing industry is already rebounding as there were 9,000 new auto jobs created — the most auto jobs added in 15 months!”

“Under President Trump, the private sector is leading the way — 93% of the job gains in February were in the private sector. This is great news for American workers and families. The Trump Administration will continue to work hard to implement pro-growth policies and push Congress to enact the Trump Economic Agenda,” she added.

I am very happy about the fact that more manufacturing jobs were added, but can we also take a minute to revel in the DECREASE of government jobs? Those are some numbers I can truly get behind. The level of bloat in our nation’s government is insane, and I could not be happier that the fat is being trimmed.

The report also boasts some other intriguing pieces of information:

I have a feeling a lot of the growth for native-born Americans is related to the manufacturing job spike.

Overall, a lot of good news in this report—and I hope this trend continues for months to come.
