President Donald Trump hit TRUTH Social on Wednesday morning to react to the strong jobs report showing job growth surged, adding 172,000 private-sector jobs.
Almost doubling most estimates.
Just in: GREAT JOBS NUMBERS, FAR GREATER THAN EXPECTED! The United States of America should be paying MUCH LESS on its Borrowings (BONDS!). We are again the strongest Country in the World, and should therefore be paying the LOWEST INTEREST RATE, by far. This would be an INTEREST COST SAVINGS OF AT LEAST ONE TRILLION DOLLARS PER YEAR – BALANCED BUDGET, PLUS. WOW! The Golden Age of America is upon us!!! President DJT
📈Job growth surged in January, adding 172,000 private-sector jobs – smashing expectations.
✅Private sector employment rose 615,000 in President Trump’s first year in office, while federal employment declined to its lowest level since 1966.

The White House also released a statement on the jobs report, saying, “This is the Trump economy.”
“Today’s blockbuster, expectation-shattering jobs report proves that President Trump’s economic agenda continues to pay off. The unemployment rate fell, and private sector job growth remains robust — particularly for specialty trade construction jobs as the trillions in investments secured by the President pour into American manufacturing. With new revisions showing that the Biden jobs market was even worse than expected, President Trump continues to turn the page on the Biden disaster by rightsizing federal employment to the lowest level since 1966 and turbocharging economic growth,” White House Deputy Press Secretary Kush Desai said.
