As you know, Donald Trump's biggest promises was to make manufacturing a huge economic sector, again.
Fail:

Employment in manufacturing was basically flat, however. Heavy industry has only added 53,000 jobs this year despite an economic upsurge.

“The manufacturing jobs recovery isn’t happening,” said Jed Kolko, chief economist of the job-lisitng website Indeed.

The figure I've been reading is 158K and unemployment has ticked up a bit.

BUT, let's be fair about this. President Obama got us to 100% employment so, in-spite of all the of buffoon's buffoonery, all he can do is lie.

Let's just hope he doesn't screw it up too badly.
