I think it is clear relative to what he committed to do with respect to the 1,100 jobs in Indiana. The 1,100 jobs they will have at the end of this is what was referenced and expected.

Still, keep cheering the job loss though. Real winning for your side. Boy, it's all about getting Trump for you.

Where were you and WaPo during the previous administration. Conventienly absent.

So 700 - 632 = 68. So Trump saved 68 jobs esentially. I am not here to fight, I want to know the facts.

Certainly doesn't look good.

Edit. I think I get it now, disregard my above post. Not thinking clearly this early. Certainly a misleading title

Truth. It's just crazy to me how a want and people like him are so upset about something like a presidential election that barely affects their day to day lives to the point where they wish evil and unemployment on other Americans. Wtf is wrong with these people.


It's simple. They are crazy pieces of shite, and we'd be better off without them.

That's the point! Everyone knew saving those jobs was impossible without some sort of kickback/gov bailout. People don't ship jobs overseas/to Mexico because they hate America. They do it because it's cheap. Trump supporters ignored this and celebrated because they won the day's news cycle.

Bottom line: Trump promises to save the jobs. He didn't. But you refuse to hold him accountable.

Actually if you even read your horrendous article you would know Trump saved 800 jobs AND kept a plant open. You are the one spreading fake news.

Do he or did he not promise "100 percent" to save those jobs? 

You guys move the goalpost so often you forget where you moved it to.


At least he tried, can't do everything.... Obama was busy getting fricked in the arse by his man-wife beast while thousands of jobs went away.

Edit: nvm, you're full of shite and can't read. You're attempt at a gotcha thread failed.

You are truly a dumbass. This was always part of the deal. They were always cutting jobs, but they're keeping the indy plant open and keeping 800 jobs there (they were originally shutting down completely). This is a campaign promise kept and more WaPo FAKE NEWS. You are not a smart person.


They really and truly don't realize how terrible they look in all of this. Americans can see right through things like this. People are starting to wake up to the fact that these idiots on the far left ARE the domestic enemy.

Keep cheering the loss of American jobs, jackasses. Keep misquoting and misrepresenting deals like this to try and "get" Trump. Keep it up. You will get him elected again.

What a bunch of sick fricks. It is really disgusting.

No. You had it right initially.

The 1100 he claimed to save were never going to Mexico in the first place.

USA Today
You seem to conveniently forget that the original issue was over closure of the entire plant, which didn't happen because of the deal brokered with the state and Trump. Carrier has to keep the plant open for ten (10) years or Carrier returns the $7M incentives.
quote:

Carrier announced last February that it would close the Indianapolis factory and cut about 1,400 production jobs in a move expected to save $65 million annually. The deal with the state saves about 800 of those jobs, but about 550 of them are still being eliminated. Carrier also promises to keep 250 headquarters and engineering staff positions in Indianapolis that the company had said all along would stay in the state.

You really need to try harder, but continue to celebrate in the spirit of "getting" Trump.

Nope. Wrong. Did you even read your own article? I guess not.

Bottom line is that you and WaPo are wrong. He saved the jobs that were planned all along.

He was just kidding, he told house tea party republicans after he had threatened to primary any who opposed first aca replacement.

What is the consequence for carrier? Hes out of town. Will he tweet?

Have the goal posts moved?

He's already been proven wrong and is still going.

TD must be paying him to take Rex's place, bc this is something Rex would do: celebrate something like this in order to "get" an R, be proven wrong, then mock anyone who was correct.

SOP for the Progs here.

Shocker: the new symbol for the tRump administration:



All of tRump's promises pertaining to economic populism were pure bullshite, as demonstrated by his proposed budget, which is ruinous for the poor and middle class and benefits only the super rich. Big surprise. You might even say a shocker...
