President Trump’s tax, trade, and regulatory policies are clearing the way for companies to build, invest, and hire in America. We have added 72,000 manufacturing jobs so far this year, after losing more than 200,000 in Biden’s final two years. Blue-collar manufacturing workers are also earning more: their weekly wages are up 3.5 percent after adjusting for inflation since President Trump took office.

Manufacturing jobs have actually been lost under Trump. Lying is what Bessent does best. Oh, and there's the $40 trillion national debt that is increasing.

This gaslighting piece of shit. From 2025 to 2026, he andTrump LOST 21K mfg jobs. This latest number, 72K added represents a measly .3%. Meanwhile, during the Biden Administration, 775K mfg jobs were added or around 6% of the total.

BLS seasonally adjusted data shows manufacturing employment at 12,673,000 in January 2025 and 12,652,000 in September 2026 (preliminary). That is a net decline of 21,000 jobs so far in the second term. It fell to a low of 12,580,000 by December 2025, then rose 72,000 through September 2026.

Lost 113,000 in 2025. Recovered 72,000 in 2026. Apparently the rest went marketing.

Mr. Bessent, how many mnfg jobs were lost in the 1980’s -1990’s? That is when offshoring was running rampant. My father was forced to take early retirement with an underfunded pension, reduced SS benefits then suffered through the worst performing stock market decade 2000-2010 in his 70’s -80’s. He died penniless

Just telling everyone what they are personally experiencing is not what they are actually experiencing is a real dumb strategy.

Main Street, my friend. Nice about the job numbers but the focus should be Main Street. Gas and food prices will sink the midterms for @GOP

All good and to beapplauded Mr. Secretary. THANK YOU for your hard work and dedication. However, now that the foundations, walls, plant and equipment and fixtures are getting erected, the fact remains we have a CRITICAL skilled labor shortage. No one seems to wish to talk about it, with the exception of Mike Rowe. If you have any pull, 🙂, he would make an outstanding Labor Secretary. He get's it. Our current one does not. "Just The Way It Is."

Trump said we are getting rich because crude oil is so high. Does he mean the federal government? High Diesel fuel is a tax on small businesses.

Trump moved $30 billion of monthly tax revenue from top 20% to middle class consumers via 300% import tax hike.

Spot on. Thank you for your service to the United States. We need less government, not more. Everything the government touches, the price goes up to produce it, there is less of it than there was before, and it is of worse quality. Be it housing, healthcare, education, or food subsidies. - France’s Public Spending as a Share of GDP 57% - Germany's Public Spending as a Share of GDP 50.1% - UK Public Spending as a Share of GDP 44% - Canada’s consolidated public spending (federal + provincial + municipal)Public Spending as a Share of GDP 44% - Soviet Union Public Spending as a Share of GDP 40–45% of GDP, with the share rising toward the end. - China’s Public Spending as a Share of GDP 32.9% - U.S. Public Spending as a Share of GDP 22.8%

You certainly have been nothing but a total fucking disgrace to my country. We’re going bankrupt you idiot! You guys just white money on fire go talk to your buddy Lee Zelda maybe he can help you. Isn’t he the only guy that managed to cut a dime?

Thank you for all you are doing. You are a super star. Would you tell the public that things aren't progressing as rapidly as you and the President would like because of all the law suits and road blocks thrown up by the Democrat/Socialists on every issue? Responding to the ridiculous takes as much time as to the serious. People are also concerned about the deficit. Perhaps it is time for Rand Pauls' 6 Penny Plan. Thanks again.

The Treasury released the latest figures on the expansion of the labor sector in the industry. President Trump's economic agenda is rebuilding America's industrial base. "America's manufacturing sector has expanded for nine consecutive months, with 72,000 manufacturing jobs added in 2026 through September" We admire and love the Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent for his great and successful work. Let us reiterate, @SecScottBessent is simply fantastic. 🇺🇸👏👍💪❤️
