If you have high unemployment, you need big job growth numbers to get it to where you want it to be. If you have record low unemployment, you only need enough job growth to maintain record low unemployment. To come to the conclusion people are meant to come to, you'd have to believe that going from 8% to 5% unemployment is the same as going from 5% to 2%. Or if you want to take it to the extreme to show how undeniably stupid it is, it would have to be the same as going from 2% to -1%, which isn't even possible that I'm aware of.
So even when Trump is losing he's actually winning. Beside didn't Trump say that Obama was a disaster and especially Trumpists who repeat this over and over again like mantra and now when there was lower job growth during Trump's era they change their tune to "Well, economy wasn't that bad so there weren't many jobs needed."
I'm not saying anyone is winning or losing. I'm saying your chart is stupid, and with a bit of critical thinking, you should be able to figure out why.
