Manufacturing what?

Several economists line up to spread pro-Buttigieg hogwash. Funny how these so-called experts always back the lefty agenda!

Pete Buttigieg is at it again!

Statement: “Before the pandemic, America went into a manufacturing recession.”

Our favorite Transportation Secretary, Pete Buttigieg, aka the "Mayor of Fake Town," went on Fox News to spread some more of his left-wing propaganda. He dared to criticize our beloved President Trump, blaming him for the country's economic woes. What a joke!

"Before the pandemic, America went into a manufacturing recession, which really hurt places like where I come from in the industrial Midwest. He broke his promise for that kind of economic growth." -- Pete Buttigieg, the so-called "Transportation Secretary"

Let's take a look at the real facts, shall we?

First of all, there's no denying that the mighty Trump administration oversaw a massive boost in manufacturing jobs, with a 3.3% rise before the pandemic. But of course, Buttigieg and his liberal friends would never let you know that.

Yes, there was a slight downturn in 2019, but let's be clear, it was nothing compared to the devastation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, which was totally not Trump's fault by the way!

The real issue here is the metric used to define a "recession." When it comes to the manufacturing sector, the left-wing media loves to twist the truth. News outlets like CNN and the L.A. Times, aka "fake news central," were quick to declare a recession in manufacturing, ignoring the fact that President Trump's policies had overall positive effects.

Buttigieg and his cronies will stop at nothing to shift the blame from their own incompetent handling of the economy. The data doesn't lie: there was no "raging recession" under Trump.

Our ruling: Mostly Fake News!
