April 03, 2020 Joe Biden Would Be the Worst Choice to Lead the U.S. Economy Out of the Coronavirus Crisis

The latest jobs data make clear that American workers and families are facing an unprecedented crisis due to the global coronavirus pandemic. President Trump is taking decisive action to get Americans the relief they need now, and he knows what it will take to quickly spark America’s job engine and get it roaring back to life and Americans back to work. He’s got the record to prove it.

Joe Biden, on the other hand, is not only unequipped to guide U.S. workers out of this unprecedented economic crisis – his policy proposals show he would be the absolute worst choice to lead the economy out of this crisis.

While President Trump’s policies led the economy to record highs and unemployment to record lows, under Joe Biden the United States experienced the weakest economic recovery since the Great Depression:

Under Biden’s watch, job growth averaged just 110,000 jobs per month, wages grew at a paltry average of just 2.2%, and the average unemployment rate was 7.4%.



Under President Trump’s watch, wages have grown at a strong average of 3%, while job creation exploded to record highs and the unemployment rates for Black Americans, Asian Americans, Hispanic Americans, and women hit all-time lows.

Despite Biden’s record of failure, he’s sticking with the same outdated thinking that reduced America’s economy to relying on life-support for years. Even amid the unprecedented global coronavirus crisis, Biden is promoting a radical, left-wing agenda that would hurt wages, harm families, and kill jobs:

President Trump spent the past three years supercharging America’s economy, creating record-low unemployment and strong wage growth that benefited all workers.

Americans will have a choice in November: stick with President Trump’s winning playbook for record-setting prosperity, or go back to Biden’s tired, old policies that resulted in the worst economic recovery in modern American history.
