Trump said he would create jobs. But almost no jobs were created last year, averaging only 15,000 per month, compared to over 100,000 per month in 2024.
Trump said he was going to drill, drill, drill, but the number of oil rigs in operation dropped to a 4-year low last year.
Trump said tariffs would energize American manufacturing, but we've lost manufacturing jobs every month since Liberation Day.
Trump said DOGE was going to find so much waste and fraud that every American would receive a check for thousands of dollars. DOGE ended up costing more than the tiny amount of cuts it made.
Trump said that other countries would pay for the tariffs, and that the revenue would replace income tax and provide refund checks. There were no checks. We pay the tariffs, and we still have income taxes.
Trump said he would tackle the debt. He increased it by $2.2 trillion last year.
The lowest earners saw their real wages decrease last year. Over 100,000 blue-collar jobs were lost. Outstanding credit card debt surpassed $1.2 trillion.
But at least the wealthiest Americans got massively wealthier last year. That is who Trump is looking out for. Not you.
The Gordie Howe Bridge was built by union workers on both sides of the border. This border is the busiest crossing between our two countries, and has been critical for not only Michigan jobs but also American jobs. Not to mention Canada paid for this bridge.
This bridge was negotiated by a Republican Governor, and in 2017 Trump endorsed the bridge calling it a “vital economic link between our two countries”.
Nothing has changed. We cannot forget Canada is our friend and ally. We have to stop these cheap shots. It helps no one, and it especially hurts our economy.
I look forward to the ribbon-cutting.
