Just for the sake of discussion, if HRC was POTUS and was doing nothing to save Carrier jobs for US workers you would be ok with it?


Pence funneled 7 mil to help automate Carrier. What jobs did he save once the improvements are made?

Btw, we are still paying for crappy jet engines. If MAGA holds true, why isn't Trump looking to get out of that deal?

Has a want posted recently or was he arrested trying to flee the country?

Other this this thread the last post I saw by him in his post history was on 7/23.

According to Fox59 in Indiana
Carrier was supposed to move its operation to Mexico laying off more than 1000 workers.
The deal Trump struck with Carrier was a $7 mill in tax breaks and required Carrier to keep 1,069 in Indianapolis but hundreds would still be laid off.

Look people losing their jobs absolutely sucks but if you can't see the sunlight in the fact that some jobs were kept from this then you are just hating on trump just to hate him.

Obvious attempt to make a want still appear active is obvious.


Or they could just be so desperate for bad Trump news they are digging up stories from 2 months ago, and still misreading them.

This thread is two months old. And as was mentioned to the retard OP back then, these cuts were announced when Trump helped make the deal to keep them here.

And he (a want) even celebrated the layoffs back in December.

Holly Gillham, a spokesman for the Indiana Economic Development Corp., which was formerly led by Vice President Pence, said Monday's notice of jobs cuts was consistent with Carrier’s arrangement with the state and Trump. “As announced in December, Carrier is fully committed to retaining more than 1,000 jobs in Indiana over the next 10 years,” she said in an email.

“By choosing to maintain these Hoosier jobs, Carrier is showing confidence in Indiana’s skilled manufacturing workforce.”


And like that, another a want thread goes down the gutter.

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


I'll let you tell me which president managed to fulfill every single campaign promise.

Did Carrier keep more jobs in Indiana after meeting with Trump than they had planned to prior to meeting with him? If he saved only one job, that would be one job more than Obama saved. Obama just gave up, said nothing could be done, and didn't even try. Trump at least puts in the effort.

You are both stupid and desperate.

It was known then that Carrier was moving jobs to Mexico, Trump and Pence DID intervene though and convince Carrier to leave about 600 jobs that were also slated to go to Mexico in Indiana. Meaning they DID save 600 American jobs.

I imagine he wishes Carrier would have left all the jobs in Indiana, but 600 is not a broken promise.

Most of you wanted Hilary to lose at the expense of failed trump promises.

Anyways, perhaps it's time the the carrier workers get better non factory jobs.

Stop being expendable and maybe you'll keep a job ?

You've got him this time, boy. A politician made a campaign promise that wasn't 100% fulfilled. It's the first time that has ever happened so we need to bring down this President for doing that!

Yeah, I misread the date at first, only looking at the day number. I didn't think someone would lamely bump a 2 month old thread.

Tell that to your friends who happen to vote Democratic at a 94% clip.

The only thing Trump guaranteed was you Prog/Dims would be in total Melt Mode for a minimum of 4 years!
