Liberals are losing their shirt over Trump....

Post by USN_Hokie »

....getting Carrier to stay in the US. I've never seen people so pissed about other people not losing their jobs.

Someone left the Washington Compost in the shitter this morning and the headline was (verbatim) "Trump's Carrier deal is right out of Putin's Playbook."

Couple this with Obama's mocking contention that the jobs were already gone and this whole situation is high comedy.

Carrier workers facing layoffs feel betrayed by Trump

Shocking. Who could've seen this coming? Oh, that's right, anyone who didn't believe a con man running for president.

Donald Trump is a stupid man's idea of a smart man, a poor man's idea of a rich man, and a weak man's idea of a strong man.

Oh dear...this is embarrassing...you seem to have been reading fake news. Even politifake gets the story right. Here, educate yourself:
The Carrier plant in Indianapolis is actually home to 1,700 employees. That means out of the 1,400 jobs being outsourced to Mexico, around 350 were never leaving. On Dec. 1, Trump had touted those 350 jobs — mainly research and development jobs — with the 800 jobs secured in the deal for his total of "more than 1,100."

On the same day Trump celebrated his political victory, Carrier sent a letter to employees, informing them that it would move forward with its earlier plan to relocate its fan coil manufacturing lines out of the country. Those coils were produced at the Indianapolis plant.

The latter is what your fake news is referring to. Spicer confirmed at his Friday presser.

Hope nolan enjoys salty tears on his popcorn. :lol:

At some point I have to wonder if hoof has a sadomasochist interest in politics. You guys just don't get tired of Trump pushing your shirt in on a daily basis.
