U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders turned up the pressure on Trump, on Saturday, about his pledge to try to stop an Indiana air conditioner manufacturer from moving 1,400 jobs to Mexico.
Both Sanders, who challenged Hillary Clinton for the Democratic nomination, and Trump seized on an announcement earlier this year by United Technologies’s Carrier division that it would shift production to Mexico as an example of how trade deals hurt U.S. workers.
United Technologies was not immediately available for comment.
Hillary would have been useless.
Great news!
WHAT A GREAT START FOR TRUMP – even before he was sworn in as PRESIDENT TRUMP.
That’s 1,000 more than Obama created.
The guy isn’t even in office yet and he is Making America Great Again.
So yonasonw , hashomer do you still question how we make America great again?
Indiana taxpayers will be paying a fortune to keep these jobs in Indiana (courtesy of Governor Pence. The Trumpkops will hail this taxpayer bailout as a neis meshamayim rather than seeing it as exactly what Trump had campaigned against……if this is Trump’s plan to keep jobs in America, he will double the tax burden on American citizens within 18 months…
How much is it costing the tax payers to subsidize Carrier’s plant?
There’s no such thing as a free lunch.
