Original Note:
The graph is contextually misleading; it ignores the impact of the massive and temporary COVID-driven job losses (Trump) & recovery (Biden). Displaying by month is also a mathematical trick to make Biden’s bar appear even larger by comparison. https://www.cnn.com/2023/02/07/politics/fact-check-president-biden-state-of-the-union/index.html https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2023/feb/07/joe-biden/joe-bidens-boast-about-job-creation-needs-some-ast/
