A little over two years ago Biden made this laughable prediction:

Politics Digest: Biden forecasts growth of up to 500,000 new jobs a month — WaPo

Vice President Biden predicted Friday that the U.S. economy would be adding up to 500,000 jobs each month “some time in the next couple of months.”

Biden said he “got in trouble” for his prediction last month of job growth. “Even some in the White House said, ‘Hey, don’t get ahead of yourself,'” he said at a Pennsylvania fundraiser, according to a pool report. “Well, I’m here to tell you, some time in the next couple of months, we’re going to be creating between 250,000 jobs a month and 500,000 jobs a month.

“We caught a lot of bad breaks on the way down,” Biden added. “We’re going to catch a few good breaks because of good planning on the way up.”

Most forecasters had expected about 200,000 jobs to be created in March. Instead, 162,000 jobs were created on non-farm payrolls — the biggest one-month gain in three years but below what economists were predicting.
