Trump was ridiculed for his theatrical portrayal of his phone conversation with the Ford CEO if he becomes president. Well, he is not even nominated and Ford feels the heat. You have to dig deep in wire services to read the news. This actually shows how weak and inconsequential the rest of the field is. Could Carson, Rubio or Bush have done this? They didn’t even try.
The article is from August, Trump announced in June and people really think it was because Ford felt the heat from Trump? Just like that they changed their minds?
Ah, but you initially tried to credit Trump with Ford's decision to move the plant in the first place:
Are you clear now that's not the case? And that it's not "Breaking News"?
It was for CNN Money. And if you think Trump’s harassing Ford had no role you are not listening. I assure you all futures moves are going to be on hold until their buddy Hillary gets in. The sad part is that the gang who the unions are endorsing are mum. It takes a billionaire Republican to defend the workers.
So do you deny that this was announced in March 2014?

So let me gets this straight. You are admitting this was announced in 2014 but you still insist Trump had something to do with this
You are one dishonest poster. Here's the link again, from the 2011 thread, the one you are conveniently ignoring
And if you think Trump’s harassing Ford had no role you are not listening.
Well then prove your case. I gave you a link to a 2011 article about Ford planning to move. It should be simple for you to find a 2011 reference to Trump having influenced it.

As right wingers say, this is capitalism, corporations should be choosing how to best run their businesses rather than the government.
That’s how I used to think but what is happening is the Dems have made it difficult for the corporations to set up shop here then leave the back door open for them to leave. It is not an accident. What is amazing is that the unions who are most affected are in on it. Why does it take a billionaire Republican to make it an issue? Now we have Kasich taking credit but in all the months that he has been running he never ever mentioned it. I guarantee you the union workers will notice who has stuck his neck out for them.

So how much are the Mexican factory workers going to be paid?
