Trump calls Biden jobs plan 'massive giveaway to China,' says it will 'crush American workers'

Former President Donald Trump called President Biden's jobs plan a "monstrosity" that "would be among the largest self-inflicted economic wounds in history."

"Joe Biden’s radical plan to implement the largest tax hike in American history is a massive giveaway to China, and many other countries, that will send thousands of factories, millions of jobs, and trillions of dollars to these competitive nations," Trump said in a statement. "The Biden plan will crush American workers and decimate U.S. manufacturing, while giving special tax privileges to outsourcers, foreign and giant multinational corporations." Biden's predecessor went on to say that the plan would lead to higher unemployment by penalizing companies that create domestic jobs, while providing an incentive for companies to move operations overseas. This, Trump noted, comes at a time when the country is recovering from the economic impacts of the coronavirus pandemic.
