According to Labor Department estimates, over 11,000 American jobs have gone offshore since Trump was inaugurated. This after him pledging that this wouldn't happen anymore under his administration. Among them - over 500 jobs at the Carrier plant in Indiana he claimed to save last year. Some were laid off in June, and 250 were given layoff notices today - their jobs are going to Mexico and China.
It was all a con job, and those people bought into it and helped elect him, thinking he really was going to save their jobs, In the end, after using them as a campaign prop, he didn't raise a finger to help them. He could care less about their jobs - the only thing important to him is him.
Let's check in with the coal miners - Trump was going to bring back coal jobs, so how's that industry job growth working out? It's not - coal has pretty much been abandoned coal in favor of natural gas. But they bought the con.
Bring back jobs to America? Start in your own backyard. Why are all of the products sold by the Trump Organization and Ivanka Trump STILL made off-shore? Why does Eric Trump still ask for a waiver to bring in foreigners to work in his vineyard rather than hire Americans? Why are most of the workers at Mar-a-Lago foreigners? Another con job.
Trumpsters, when are you going to realize that almost everything this man tells you is a lie?
The economy is improving, but it's been improving at the same rate for years. It's a glide path, not a sudden surge. Nothing has really changed. Trump says it was terrible before and is now suddenly better because of him, and you buy the lie even though the evidence shows that's not true. Why??
Job growth was actually LOWER last year than it has been in the last 10 - still think he's doing better than Obama at adding jobs? The numbers don't lie, but he does. And still, you buy it.
Just look at the facts, and the truth shall set you free. |
