Not in office yet. Obama gets the credit. Thank your Mr. President.
On Tuesday, the automaker announced that it was scrapping plans to build a $1.6-billion plant in Mexico. Instead, Ford said it would invest $700 million to expand a Michigan plant to build hybrid, electric and autonomous vehicles that will add 700 jobs there in a move that Chief Executive Mark Fields described as a “vote of confidence” in Trump’s economic policies.

Wow, suddenly Obama's policies are paying off in his last few weeks in office! Only no one can actually site what policies he passed are having this effect.
Meanwhile back in reality, Ford specifically sites Trump's policies:

Ford isn’t abandoning expanded production in Mexico.
The automaker said that to “improve company profitability” it would build its next-generation Ford Focus at an existing plant in Hermosillo, Mexico, starting in 2018. The production is being moved from Wayne, Mich.
But in the wake of criticism by Trump of companies moving manufacturing jobs south of the border, Ford said it would cancel plans announced in April for a major new factory in San Luis Potosi, Mexico, that would have produced the Focus compact cars.
“One of the factors that we see is a more positive U.S. manufacturing business environment under President Trump,” Fields said Tuesday in an interview on CNBC. “This is a vote of confidence in what we think the president-elect is going to pursue, and it’s right for our business.”
The 700 jobs to be added at Ford’s Flat Rock Assembly Plant in Michigan over the next four years are a small amount for an economy that created an average of 180,000 net new jobs a month last year. And Ford had insisted that the planned Mexico factory, which was to have led to 2,800 hires there by 2020, would not have siphoned jobs from the U.S.

So? Ford still produces some models in Mexico. Doesn't change the fact that Ford said they changed plans for the $1.6 billion plant for Mexico to the US because of Trump.
So why aren't you thanking Obama for the previous production in Mexico?
Why can't you just admit Trump is having a positive impact for US manufacturing already?

A “vote of confidence” is nice, I’ll admit it. Why can’t you just admit that if the economy hadn’t been improving under President Obama…there would be no “vote of confidence” forthcoming?
I'd be very careful about getting too giddy about shit like this. The door swings both ways.Lol, I am getting tired of Trump nailing all this shit and he isnt even in office yet.
He said it so often that this would be the final result, GM is next I guess, lol.

The economy was improving? That’s why they were planning on moving more plants to Mexico?
Corporations are people too…or is that no longer en vogueSure, it helped the corporate profits, but not the American workers.
Now that Trump will be President, it won't be profitable to move such jobs across the border or overseas. Thank you Donald Trump.

Not sure what is funnier; that you wrote it or that you may believe it.
When Trump starts changing law by EO fiat, I will be concerned, but the dude hasnt even taken office yet and people are pissing themselves in fear.I'd be very careful about getting too giddy about shit like this. The door swings both ways.

A bit of an over-reaction methinks.
