Great OP. The Verge article is excellent and well documented. Trump is STILL boasting about this empty Potemkin Village that Republican ex-Governor Scott Walker arranged — and subsidized to the tune of $400 million.
October 19th Trump ridiculously boasted that Foxconn had built “one of the most incredible plants I’ve ever seen” and would keep its promises and more if he was reelected. “They will do what I tell them to do,” he said. “If we win the election, Foxconn is going to come into our country with money like no other company has come into our country.”
If Foxconn was a Chinese mainland-owned company he would be screaming about the lying cheating communists. But Foxconn and billionaire Gou are Taiwanese. What is he supposed to do? Threaten to invade Taiwan?
