The job creation announcements just keep pouring in since Biden was elected.

Apple announces $430 billion investment in US with 20,000 new jobs
Quote:
Apple announced Monday that it plans to invest more than $430 billion in the United States and add 20,000 new jobs nationwide over the next five years, as the country picks up the pieces from the economic fallout of the coronavirus pandemic.

"At this moment of recovery and rebuilding, Apple is doubling down on our commitment to U.S. innovation and manufacturing with a generational investment reaching communities across all 50 states," Apple CEO Tim Cook said in a statement. "We're creating jobs in cutting-edge fields -- from 5G to silicon engineering to artificial intelligence -- investing in the next generation of innovative new businesses, and in all our work, building toward a greener and more equitable future."
Highlighted by a big new campus with 3,000 jobs in Raleigh-Durham. More blue tech workers for NC!

According to the Apple press release, it also includes major expansions in San Diego and Culver City, CA, Boulder, Boston, Seattle, and a data center in Iowa.

Boom times ahead!

The major investment in the U.S. economy represents a 20% increase from Apple's original five-year goal of $350 billion set in 2018.
So as I said, thanks Biden!

I'm glad the Biden Administration didn't mess this up, but let's not pretend the current administration facilitated the startup of this goal - as your thread title says.

Did the OP thank Trump for getting the ball rolling on this? Or can you not bring yourself to do that?

That’s good news if it pans out. There’s no need to turn this into political bickering.

But didn't you Trump fans say if Biden would none of this would happen -- seems that it is still a thing -- even with a pandemic. They must have confidence in Biden right.
