re: Carrier to preserve 'more than a 1000 jobs' instead of 'close to a 1000'

Sure but I expect:

1. Better results from a President elect and governor who are willing to open the government checkbook.

2. If they tried and failed to save the other jobs Trump should have mentioned that in his speech to the plant workers. Be the adult and tell them the truth to their faces. Don't go and spike the football then leave before the workers realize that most of them are still losing their jobs. It shows a severe lack of leadership and backbone.
