Trump to sell US Steel to Japan

[kyzr]

Bet this is tied to tariff talks.

Plus the outlook for steel going forward.
1. new ship building
2. new factories
3. new powerplants
4. more US cars made here
5. ?

US manufacturing jobs declined after tariffs.

Yeah, but Trump has $10T or so in commitments for new plants and products.

With a 4% unemployment rate there may not be enough workers to fill the jobs.

Our beloved Pres.Trump knows what is best for the country and his people.
Supporting his decisions is patriotic.

You're gonna give Dems hemorrhoids with talk like that.

 

[Delldude]

Perhaps now they might actually start paying the mill workers instead of pretend pay.

They make $50-80,000.

As for Japan buying US Steel, it's not like they're going to close the factory and move operations out of the country. ...

You got it backwards.

 

[Unkotare]

... the people are very, VERY different from us. And everybody else for that matter.

No.

Gullible - Trump is a multi-national politician who does what benefits himself, not USA. Syria bought him by building a Trump Tower. Qatar is giving him a $400 million Luxury B747.

The 747 was built here and damn you progs grasp at straws. We had a real insurrection in the 2020 election, and you were it. A fraud Presidency. A coup of a nation that has trended that direction for decades.

Kind of like Biden….. got his son an $85k per month gig with an oil company in the Ukraine. What was Hunter Biden’s experience in the oil and gas industry? As for the plane, it is a gift to US that started under Biden.

Nippon Steel plans to invest $14 billion in U.S. Steel's operations including up to $4 billion in a new steel mill if the Trump administration green lights its bid for the iconic U.S. company, according to a document and three people familiar with the matter.

Didn't Trump promise to save USS & MAGA?

Amazing what buying a few million dollars of a worthless crypto gets you these days....

Actually, while not recommended the Ukraine Company got what they wanted by appointing Hunter... They wanted a known person on their board...

Plenty of GOP relatives have done this too..

Actually Hunter was pretty well qualified:
“Well, I was vice chairman on the board of Amtrak for five years. I was the chairman of the board of the UN World Food Programme. I was a lawyer for Boies Schiller Flexner, one of the most prestigious law firms in the world. Bottom line is that I know that I was completely qualified to be on the board to head up the corporate governance and transparency committee on the board. And that’s all that I focused on. Basically, turning an Eastern European independent natural gas company into Western standards of corporate governance.” - Hunter.

This makes him far more qualified than some of the Trump Cabinet picks...

LoL....you miss his comments in a MSM interview where he was asked about his expertise in gas tech?

Pretty sure it was CBS

A Dunce Cap Is Worn on the Head

Technology takes brains. The Bizz Skule Bozos in management are mentally inferior, so they have a jealous contempt of industrial scientists.

Would that be a qualified statement from someone who worked there or just internet horse crap?

If the sale of US Steel doesn't go through, it will likely close within the year. Many, many more jobs lost and an even greater dependence on foreign steel. Part of the deal with Japan is that the factories stay open in the US, an influx of new funding, and re-opening at least one old factory. New jobs, increased business tax, and security for domestic production. Seems like a good deal to me. I'd bet they'd be smart enough to have American flags flying all over the place too.

Payoff's through Trump's meme crypto coins has given Trump far more wealth than he acquired in his entire lifetime up to that point.

The latter.

Libtards love global trade until Trump does it..... that's TDS guys....

Not IT horse crap.................what do you want to know?

That "Main Street" guy does nothing but repeat his favorite talking points against business, inheritance, education, etc. over and over like a religious chant.
