"Worse than Obama and Carter's"

...is the point of calling out Carter's job creation?

Under Carter, more than 10 million jobs were created (and that's in one term). That's about 5 million jobs more than both Bushes combined. That's 2 million more than Reagan's average. By comparison, Reagan only created 5 million jobs in his first term. In fact, during the Clinton years, there were more jobs created (23 million, two terms) than Reagan (16 million in two terms) and both Bushes (5.5 million across three terms), combined. In terms of average job creation, Carter is third, behind Clinton and Reagan's second term.
