CNN fact-checker debunks Pence’s ‘bonkers’ lie about Obama and job creation

Speaking to Fox News, Vice President Mike Pence tried to put a positive spin on the economy — by taking the economic rebound of the past 3 months, and claiming that the raw number of jobs created during that period beats the entirety of job growth in President Barack Obama's 8-year administration.

CNN fact-checker Daniel Dale tore into this argument as "bonkers," pointing out that in addition to being a misleading comparison, it's not even correct on its own terms.
