RENO, NEVADA: Turning his 2024 presidential campaign into an endless session of bragging, Donald Trump added a new claim to the list. The former President boasted that the country had the "best job numbers in history" during his term.

Addressing the crowd at a campaign rally in Reno, Nevada, on December 17, Trump said that America had "The best job numbers in the history of our country." Taking a dig at the Biden administration, he added, "The real job numbers, not the fake job numbers that they give."



 

However, a Reuters report contradicted Trump's claims. The report stated, "He will be the only modern president to leave office with fewer US jobs than when his term began."
