My headline for today:

“3 times as many jobs created in Biden’s first ten months as were created under last 3 GOP Presidents, combined”
OK, kicking off our monthly thread which shows how much better Dems have been for US economy over past 3 decades. 2 stats:

95% of all jobs created since 1989 have come under Dem Presidents

3 times as many jobs have been created under Biden than last 3 GOP Presidents, combined
The last 3 Republican Presidents brought recessions and rising unemployment rates.

The last 3 Dem Presidents have brought growth, rising wages, lower unemployment rates.
The economy has repeatedly grown much faster under Dem Presidents.

GOP has struggled to create growth, jobs since new age of globalization began in 1989.
Job growth numbers provide most dramatic contrast.

34m jobs = 16 yrs Clinton Obama
6m jobs = 10 months Biden
2m jobs = Bush Bush Trump

Of 42m jobs created since 1989 in US 40m have been created under Dem Presidents. 95%!
Job creation rate under Biden is about 60 times - yes 60x - rate of jobs created under last 3 Presidents.

Note here that GOP Presidents averaged only 10k jobs created PER MONTH over 16 years
Have added a bit of analysis to these graphs in a new essay, below.

95% of all jobs created since 1989 have come under Dem Presidents

3 times as many jobs have been created under Biden as last 3 GOP Presidents combined

Help me spread the good word.

My good friend @kramos1841 has a new, smart piece in @Salon making some of the same arguments. It's well worth a read.

1/So every 2 weeks when @NavigatorSurvey drops its data, I create something I call a "Saliency Index" using their top 4 most important issue question.

The index takes the data and projects what it looks like for our likely voters in swing district/state.

navigatorresearch.org/wp-content/upl…
2/Here it is:

COVID 59%
Economy/Jobs 57%
Health Care 42%
Climate/Extreme Weather 34%
Soc Sec/Medicare 33%
Inflation 27%
Govt Corruption 23%
Immigration 21%
Nat Security 19%
Violent Crime 17%
Afghanistan 11%
Abortion 11%
3/My model is 80% D, 15%I, 5% R which is what the composition of the electorate who votes for a Democratic candidate in a swing state/district might look like.

Goal here is to help us understand where the head is at of the voters we need to talk too.

It is time now for Dems to shift their strategy from selling things which have not yet happened to the things which have - ARP, COVID, recovery.

If we can’t get credit for things we’ve done we won’t for things we haven’t.

2022 will be about whether we led US into recovery.
If Democrats cannot credit for our core promise to voters in 2020 - defeating COVID, securing the recovery - we will not get credit for passing bills whose impacts will not be felt for years.
Best way to sell BBB and infrastructure is by defeating COVID and securing the recovery, and explaining and getting credit for it. That is job #1.

Don’t think there’s any politics/comms rn outside COVID/recovery frame.

FFS COVID may be most disruptive thing to hit US ever.

Here are some graphs with the new jobs numbers factored in, once again showing just how much better Biden and Democrats have been as stewards of the American economy over the past 30 years. 1/
In just 9 months Biden has seen three times as many jobs created on his watch as were created during the last 3 GOP Presidencies, COMBINED.

Obama Clinton 33.8m jobs
Biden 5.6m jobs
2 Bushes, Trump 1.9m jobs
Breaking it down by month, its

Biden 620,000
Clinton Obama 176,000
2 Bushes Trump 9700

Yes that's Biden at 60x times job growth rate than last 3 GOP Presidents, and yes that's 10,000 a month for Rs.

So, a thread about digging out of our current hole and making the 2022 elections competitive again.

Our most important job now is to lead America through the end of COVID and into a sustained recovery. That is why Biden was elected, and it is work that is still not finished. 1/
COVID has an extraordinary trauma for everyone.

There may not be a singular event this disruptive to our basic lives again in many of our lifetimes.

Getting us through it, ending it, putting it behind us remains job #1 for Democrats. 2/

Using @NavigatorSurvey data I modeled out the top issues for what would be typical Dem swing district right now:

COVID 64%
Econ/Jobs 60%
Climate/Extreme Weather 40%
Health Care 39%

This is our map, our guide for where we have to spend our time these next six months. 3/

As I write below in every election since 2016 - 2018, 2020, 2021 GA/CA - Dems have won, seen very high end turnout. Been quite a run.

Will see what happens tonight but we know turnout is very high. If Ds win would continue MAGA's remarkable losing streak.
I think Dems need an argument about MAGA not just Trump.

Realize @TerryMcAuliffe shorthanded it in the closing days, but goal should be to show how MAGA has replaced conservatism in the GOP, and brand the entire party as unfit/extreme.

@TheDemocrats DNC needs to lead on this.

So, the new strategy memo I just published about how Biden can get his poll numbers back up and once again seize control of the national debate has gotten a bit of attention this week.

Here's the memo: ndn.org/time-for-dems-… 1/
Talked about the memo and why I would rather be us than them next year with my friend and teacher @JoeTrippi for his pod this week. 2/

podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sim…
@JoeTrippi Also talked to the great @ronbrownstein about how central defeating COVID is to unlocking the power of the rest of the President's agenda in his new @TheAtlantic column. 3/
