Trump Alternate Reality:
[blockquote style="border:1px solid #000000;padding:10px"]We're seeing companies open up factories in America. We're seeing them keep jobs at home. Ford, General Motors, Fiat Chrysler, just to name a very, very few, so many more already.
Repeated on Feb. 9, Feb. 16, Feb. 18
Facts:
Trump repeatedly takes credit for business decisions unrelated to his presidency. Fords decision has more to do with the companys long-term goal particularly its plans to invest in electric vehicles than with the administration. Meanwhile, the January jobs report, showing 230,000 jobs were created, reflects the last month of the Obama administration. The data was collected in early January, when Obama was still president.
like other manufacturing businesses, these decisions aren't made over-night, and they predicated on extensive economic/market research and production cost/volume estimates and must meet sales and ROI goals before they are approved - not to please some blowhard like DT.
