After Harley spat, Trump woos other motorcycle makers to US

President Donald Trump said Tuesday his administration is working to bring other motorcycle companies to the United States after Harley-Davidson's decision to shift some production for European customers overseas.

Trump gave no details about what steps his administration is taking. Asked about the tweet, White House senior adviser Kellyanne Conway had no comment.

"Now that Harley-Davidson is moving part of its operation out of the U.S., my Administration is working with other Motor Cycle companies who want to move into the U.S," Trump said on Twitter, adding "The U.S. is where the Action is!"

Harley-Davidson declined to comment on the tweet.

the Chamber of Commerce as well as the Business Round Table to trash Trump. Wisconsin CD 1 just became a Democratic winner after this.

Not a Harley fan,but,grew up in Wisconsin and there are some six to seven other support jobs tied to every Harley Assembly job. And these jobs are scattered in every County of the State as well as Illinois and Iowa. The shops are not that big,but,they are essential to Harley's Supply Chain.

You can not fix Stupid.
