Original Note:
The term "middle class" is first attested in James Bradshaw's 1745 “pamphlet Scheme.” The National Labor Union (the first US union) was founded on August 20, 1866 - over 100 years later The president’s statements are inconsistent with the facts and, thus, misleading. https://guides.loc.gov/this-month-in-business-history/august/national-labor-union-8-hour-work-day#:~:text=The%20National%20Labor%20Union%20was%20the%20first%20attempt%20in%20the,beginning%20on%20August%2020%2C%201866. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_class
