So what do you think Trump is going to do? He cant stop them leaving and if he puts on tariffs other countries will retaliate the same.  You seem to live in the world of delusion that Trumpites live in that the President can do what he wants and without repercussions. You are going to have a very disappointing and embarrassing 4 years as you watch him achieve nothing other than economic turmoil and probably recession.

Alas, Longy, you seem to live in the world of delusion that Sprint will understand any of your post.

Here is what Trump delivered for the US:

"In exchange for tax breaks that will cost the state of Indiana $700,000 a year for an unspecified number of years, Carrier will keep 850 manufacturing jobs in the state, along with 300 headquarters and engineering jobs that slated to move to North Carolina. About 1,300 jobs will still relocate to the glorious workers’ paradise of Mexico."

And I still give Trump credit for an amazing PR stunt. The man is truly a Master Persuader.

Why should anyone believe a leftard like Gary Legum?

The article your quote is from, and the several articles it is linked to, doesn't rely on anything other than Legum's word and some supposed source, which doesn't elaborate either.

I am saying I don't trust Legum. He has about a dozen or so anti-Trump articles. He's not balanced enough to be trusted.

Well, they can start selling into Cuba, then.


The point is not that jobs will never be lost in the US. The point is that you cannot sacrifice US jobs, move offshore and then sell back tariff free.

Trump is not that different to Sanders on this:

There are many corporations who have turned their backs on the American worker, who have said, if I can make another nickel in profit by going to China and shutting down in the United States of America, that's what I will do. I will do my best to transform our trade policy and take on these corporations who want to invest in low-income countries around the world rather than in the United States of America.

Priority of trade deals should be helping American workers
Bernie Sanders believes that the top priority of any trade deal should be to help American workers. Unfortunately, as Bernie has warned year after year, American trade policy over the last 30 years has done just the opposite. Multinational corporations- who have helped to write most of these trade deals--have benefited greatly while millions of American jobs have been shipped overseas. American trade policy should place the needs of American workers and small businesses first.

If Bernie says it -good. If Trump says it - bad.

That's how stupid you are.
