Communist in Chief
Trump told reporters he was not happy with GM's decision to idle a plant in Lordstown, Ohio.
"I have no doubt that in the not too distant future, they'll put something else. They better put something else in," Trump said.
GM did not immediately comment on Trump's remarks, but the company noted it has other facilities in Ohio including a transmission plant in Toledo and metal center in Parma.
Ohio lawmakers urged GM to reconsider. Republican Senator Rob Portman told GM chief executive Mary Barra on Monday that the company should bring a new product to the plant and he also urged GM "to at least reallocate some of the production and employees to the Toledo GM plant."
In July 2017, Trump made a speech in Youngstown, Ohio near the GM plant and vowed jobs were "all coming back." He told local residents: "Don't move. Don't sell your house."

I think the lesson is. Nothing is too big to fail. The next time GM is about to go bankrupt...let the company die.

GM can do whatever the hell it wants. The administration can threaten all they want, they can’t and won’t do anything about it. I am interested to see how GM fairs considering they are about 10 years behind Tesla, Ford, and others.2001400ex said:
