Mr Jones has been all over network tv reporting these ugly incidents in his own words. I don't think he is lying but you are wrong as it pertains to this being fake news. It's not, it's real and it's all on Trump!

Seems to me that Mr. Jones did not allow himself to be bullied by the insecure bully we elected for President. Mr. Jones is the winner in this fracas.

Is Trump going to continue to have twitter wars with every single citizen or company or organization whom he feels has slighted him?

Or will he move on to world leaders?

The guy is dangerous and immature.

This is bad, and suggest that speaking truth to power in this country now has severe consequences.

Welcome to the new world of King Donny!
The truth is relative

This is a glaring example of a man who doesn't take BS from someone who can only criticize teh work of others and not produce themself.

You can cry and whine about the deal all you want. But the irrefutable fact is Trump is the one who got the deal done. Nobody else was able to get a deal done. Obama and Clinton didn't even try. They wouldn't even pick up the phone to make a call. Whether it saved 1100 jobs or 900 or 600, it saved jobs.

How many jobs did Chuck Jones save? If he doesn't like this deal, what was his proposed alternative deal? Most likely, in typical union masochisist fashion, his approach was to demand everything and give up nothing to which the company responded by deciding to move to Mexico.

Presidents and senior Executives are held to a higher standard and need to accept criticism without feeling they need to hit back. It's both childish and boorish behavior.

World leaders need to act like world leaders not schoolboy thugs.
You don't seem to get that Trump was elected because people want someone who will tell it like it is and not play by the established political rules.
