Gillibrand jabs Trump: 'Female jobs he created were Democratic women in Congress'
BY MICHAEL BURKE - 02/06/19 08:43 AM EST
Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand jabbed at President Trump late Tuesday, saying he "seems not to understand" that the jobs his administration has created for women were for women in Congress.

Gillibrand's comments came after Trump during his State of the Union address touted workforce gains for women during his presidency.
"No one has benefited more from our thriving economy than women, who have filled 58 percent of the newly created jobs last year," Trump said.
The comment prompted a group of Democratic female lawmakers to stand up and applaud.
Trump said in response that the women "weren't supposed to do that."
