    Earlier this week, Reuters reported that Foxconn was reconsidering its plans to build liquid crystal display panels at the facility – causing confusion and raising doubts as to whether it would fulfill its promise to eventually employ 13,000 workers, primarily from the manufacturing sector.

    Nobody dry-humped this narrative faster and harder than Hondo

    I hear Trump has personally requested that all 10,000 start shitting in the streets so that they can be as successful as the Golden State.

    Foxconn backs away from their commitment and you gloat. Trump makes a phone call and gets them to recommit...he's a dictator. You're officially the Strongarmcobra of The Tug

    Lot of unskilled, nativist, protectionists in this thread.
    Will trump make a call and then you can have a job too? Or do you need state subsidies first?

    So more protectionism and tariffs to protect the uncompetitive?

    We have to destroy free markets to save them?

    There is also a difference in forcing a company to move here vs. strong arming a company to honor a state what was promised.

    Yes. I get it. You need help. Government. Tariffs. Walls. Regulations. Barriers. Anything but your own skill and ingenuity. You’ve made it abundantly clear.

    Subsidized and strong-armed jobs are good? Trump is out-protecting Democrats and supposed defenders of free markets are applauding like the unskilled uneducated fools they are. Hi doogie!

    Tariffs were started to prevent intellectual property theft (at least I hope)

    Walls and Barriers are designed to stop the flow of illegal immigration

    Regulations like taxing outgoing companies, makes a consequence for moving to third world countries.

    These were set up to prevent other nations from taking away profits from our? skills, our? services, and our? innovations without themselves having to make a contribution.
