📰Trump’s Jobs Boom: The Numbers Don’t Add Up President Trump says U.S.-born workers are finally winning thanks to his immigration crackdown. “One hundred percent of all net job creation has gone to American-born citizens,” he declared in a prime-time speech. But economists say the data tells a very different story. Since Trump took office, immigration has dropped sharply—deportations soared, border crossings plunged, and more than a million immigrants lost their legal status. The administration claims that 2.5 million U.S.-born workers landed jobs as a result. Here’s the catch: the numbers are misleading. When immigrants vanish from labor surveys, the math automatically inflates the count of native-born workers—even if they’re not actually getting new jobs. Economists call it a “data felony.” The truth? The labor market is weakening for everyone. The unemployment rate for U.S.-born workers is climbing—up to 4.3 percent from 3.9 percent last year. Job growth has slowed, and there’s no evidence that Americans are rushing into jobs left by immigrants. Trump’s economic team insists the crackdown is working. But as more Americans struggle to find work, the real question is: who’s winning, and who’s just spinning numbers? #Trump#jobs#immigration#economy#unemployment 📱American Оbserver - Stay up to date on all important events 🇺🇸
