During a surprise visit to the White House Press briefing, President Biden dismissed claims by Sen. Marco Rubio that recent jobs numbers were fake, asserting their authenticity. He pointed out that the criticisms from 'MAGA Republicans' often label unfavorable data as fake, noting the importance of global perceptions of the U.S. economy. Biden emphasized the reality of the job numbers, suggesting that such attacks are politically motivated rather than fact-based.
When asked about Rubio's claims, Biden replied with humor before addressing the seriousness of the matter. He underscored that revisions to jobs reports are standard and not a sign of deception, highlighting the robust nature of the U.S. job market. The President made clear that the job numbers reflect the actual progress and resilience of the American economy, which stands reputable in comparison to economies worldwide.
