Consider that Trump was referring to what I linked, perhaps review the link and do further research before discounting it.
Your article is from September... the article I linked is from TWO days ago.
Ford CEO says production plans on track despite election
The bottom line is .. the, "new" car plant in Mexico will employ mostly Mexicans .. not Americans.
I never argued that. I'm just saying that Trump hasn't changed anything. He's taking credit for something that was already going to happen.
Yup, quite a mix-up in this thread...
"I think he is talking about the big truck Ford plant... the one that was planning on not moving to Mexico long before Trump was elected." Lewdog
As I recall it's more difficult to make a profit on small car production than trucks and larger vehicles... My guess is that Trump is aware of this and your original, "think" was faulty.
There is several things going on in this thread, but I summed it up with another post that you are ignoring.
The Truck plant is staying in Ohio.
The small car plants are being built in Mexico even if Trump puts up a large tariff.
The Lincoln plant was already being kept in Kentucky... and Ford had said that because of Unions it wouldn't be closing any American plants. Trump just took credit for something that was already happening.
All these have been backed up by sources.
So now tell me how I'm not credible?
At this point I'm just bored and ready to move on... In my opinion Trump was referring to the small car plant moving to Mexico (along with the jobs) and the rest of your argument is merely extrapolation and whining.
