Trump oversaw 2.1 million job losses, although there were 6.6 million jobs added during his first three years in office (i.e., pre-pandemic years).
Obama oversaw 7.1 million job gains, with losses at the beginning of his first term due to the Great Financial Crisis.
Bush oversaw 5.2 million job gains.

Creating more jobs in 4 years than over the previous twenty is a proud record.
