Trump has already turned into the consummate politician. Blaming a business for what the government caused...

Ford is leaving for the same reasons other businesses leave. Over burdensome taxation, regulation, Labor unions, etc. All government imposed anti free market anti capitalism regulations. Add to that the burden of entitlements, artificially low interest rates, money printing, inflation, minimum wages, etc. All destined to destroy wealth, increase poverty, and reduce liberty.

And the same reasons Trump transacts business offshore as well.

Hypocrite....

As usual it's all in how his message is interpreted in an article. It's a disgrace Ford is going to Mexico because of NAFTA. Ford and Trump himself go offshore because it's prudent business when working with the rules the government has in place.

That is what detractors do not take into account when slamming Trump's business decisions. He uses the rules and laws he's given like a good businessman must in order to survive and be successful.

In the excerpt he openly states NAFTA is the disgrace, not Ford. Trump's comments are taken out of context by the writer to make it sound like his comments are directed at Ford. Read just his quoted comment and it's clearly NAFTA he's calling a disgrace.

Did you see the headline? Trump clearly said Ford is a disgrace for moving the plant to Mexico.

Nafta isn't the cause, bad government taxation, regulation, and inflation is...

Yes I saw it and as I stated, that is Trump's comments being taken out of context by the writer. Read the article and it's quite obvious he's talking about government's poor decisions/actions you mention "and" bad trade agreements like NAFTA being the disgrace. Ford is acting upon those agreements as they must do to survive.

Trump states Ford moving "because" of the reasons you've stated is the disgrace. Nowhere does he say Ford itself is the disgrace. The writer weaves his comments into the story to obviously make it appear Trump said what their headline wrongly insinuates him to say.

NAFTA is part of what you list for crying out loud.:skull

My main point is trump approached this from a traditional politician perspective. Bash the business for what is gov't fault. Nafta is a minor item in the larger picture.

As a porported "outsider" he should be bashing the gov't establishment. Instead he bashes Ford just as hard and his answer to this is slap them with tariffs. Ford would be getting double dong'd if the Don is successful implementing what he is proposing.

Trump sounds like the whiner to me... How many people has he threatened to sue during this campaign? He's going to sue the RNC, Cruz, Rubio, Megyn Kelly, numerous news networks, Miss Pennsylvania, the USA Pageant, some hall for the mics not working or something. Maybe that's his art to the deal, but doesn't transfer well to politics.

And as of today, wants to sue the entire population of Wisconsin. That will scare them into submission..lol. Let's not forget the entire state of Iowa is stupid. How many people does he think he can allienate & still have a chance at the general? At this point Hillary only needs to play highlight reels of his comments from his own mouth.

Where in the hell does Trump find his advisors? This Roger Stone clown is threatening to post names and room numbers of delegates if they become unbound and don't vote for Trump.

Are you sure you want to bother an accountant and moderator in the first two weeks of April?
All the Best.

460 handles that now. My subscription had run out so I signed up for another year of 460's latest 2.0 version.

Gave me an extra 40 thanks for taking advantage of the year deal rather than monthly [emoji106]

Don't tell him I told you this but he sounds a lot like Billy Mays when he pitches you 2.0 version.

You've been warned [emoji2]
