    On top of that, we got to see the left-wing media hacks makes fools of themselves, and expose just how unprofessional and dishonest they are.

    As a bonus, the progressive narrative has been shot full of holes.

    And - icing on the cake - Hillary lost.

      In this side of anti-Trump lala-land, angst about Trump using 'bribery at taxpayer's expense', and deal only working because he bribed. In other side, Trump is getting blasted for armtwisting Carrier:



      You guys need to coordinate on narrative: is Trump being too nice or too mean???
      Neither nice nor mean, but manipulative and dishonest for political gain. Jobs in this deal are still being lost to Mexico.

        1) Trump was too nice
        2) Trump was too mean
        3) Trump was neither nor mean

        Amount of spin just incredible

        Jobs in this deal are still being lost to Mexico.


        It's a deal. Even child would know that in deals often both sides don't exactly all of what they want, but they reach a compromise.
        Remember that you are dust and to dust you shall return.

                So you libs care nothing that 800 Americans are keeping their jobs, instead of ending up on unemployment and welfare? Including their entire families?


                $7 million incentive divided among 800 people: $8,750 per person. That is less than it would cost the government to pay each of them welfare and foodstamps for one year. And the government will get that $7 million back in taxes from those workers in less than 2 years. Sounds like a pretty good deal to me.

                          No Carrier did not. Their PARENT company, United Technologies, did.

                              You'd love to see investors stop investing in companies, wouldn't you? God forbid that they desire to make a profit on their investments...

                                Come on, guys, give liberals a break. They know there has to be something wrong here simply because it's Trump. They just haven't figured out exactly what's wrong yet, but don't worry, they'll come up with something! We just have to give them a little more time.
