They were completely drubbed in the election. Have no control or influence in DC. And the looniest of them are crying and rioting in the streets because nobody is paying them attention anymore.

I'd say, their credibility is close to 0 right now.

No, you're not generous, you're a typical left wing racist. That's about it.

It's a brilliant "look over there".

Let me guess... You're happy Ford moved the majority of production to Mexico.

No comment on Ford still moving production to Mexico? I am right about this story. It's smoke and mirrors.

The US consumer has a preference for pick- up trucks, SUVs and crossovers. Ford continues to intend to move production of the Ford Focus to Mexico to better compete on price point with Honda and Toyota in both the US and off shore markets.

Ford has had offshore plants going back to the 20's. Ford has had operations in Mexico since the mid 60's and substantially expanded operations in the 80's.

Industrial robotics has and will continue to pose a far greater risk to US manufacturing jobs than offshoring.
Unions and Trumpsters and Bernie, all the same team!
