Oh No!!
White House press secretary Jean-Pierre was mocked on social media after mistakenly saying “We have created nearly ten thousand million jobs since President Biden took office.”
That number is incorrect, and she met the face of fury in the social media comment section. As Fox Business reported Thursday, the U.S. economy added 315,000 new jobs in August, making it is the “lowest monthly gain since April 2021.”
Ten Thousand Million: that’s 10,000,000,000. In the real world that’s 10 billion. Using scientific notion it’s 10 to the ninth or 10^9.
UK journalist Nile Gardiner witnessed the gaffe and claimed it’s emblematic of the lameness of the Biden administration. He tweeted, “The sheer hubris and staggering amateurism of the Biden presidency is breathtaking.”
