Job creation under the Trump administration has lagged behind the Obama years.
Here is a chart (data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (https://data.bls.gov/timeseries/CES0000000001?output_view=net_1mth))
This plots the number of jobs created in the first 5 months of each year from 2010 thru 2018. As can be seen, the Trump administration has created less jobs than in any of the last 7 years of the Obama administration. Even with the Tax Bill passed, job creation is declining this year.
Wage Growth under the Trump administration has lagged behind the Obama years.
Here is a chart from the Atlanta Fed on Wage Growth (https://www.frbatlanta.org/chcs/wage-growth-tracker.aspx?panel=1 )
If you look at the chart, wage growth began in 2010 and if it were to have increased along the same path, wages should have been greater than they have been under the current administration.
USA Tariffs are in line with the rest of the world. Lower than in China and Mexico. Equal to the EU. Higher than Japan or Canada.
Here is a chart from the World Bank showing the Mean Tariff rate for each country over 100% of that country’s products.
