"Over the past century, Democrats are 300% better at creating jobs than Republicans!

heard this on thom hartmann's show today

"1920-2020: Democrats Grow Jobs (Massively). Republicans Crash Economies.

"That’s a shocking figure for most people, most of whom still think that Republicans are better for the economy, but, in the 100 years since 1920, Democratic Administrations have created 85 million jobs and Republican Presidencies only 29 million jobs.
