Developing . . .
Bloomberg's mistake, here, in this instance, is not understanding, that Trump IS A MARKET FORCE.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry. KCMO has plenty of bartender, donut makers, and latte foamer jobs for everyone to prosper and live in all the luxury homes and apartments being built.
ReplyDeleteLucas can start a permanent cash for clunkers deal once he's Mayor.
ReplyDeleteWith a greater segment of the car market Buying Pre-owned cars. And if you buy a High Quality car you can put over three hundred thousand miles on it. Many Manufacturers will have problems. I live
ReplyDeleteIn Past I have owned few General Motors sports cars and they were fun to Drive. That is when cars were cars and Grovin,was Grovin ,
ReplyDeleteGM would rather build cars in China where they can pay 25 cents an hour to build cars. They are not closing any plants there.
ReplyDeleteSimilar to the liberals "outrage" over Saudis killing one of their own.
ReplyDeleteSee how "outraged" they are when they get their way, and we sever ties with Saudis, resulting in thousands of lost jobs due to canceled contracts.
Then watch the SJWs scream and rage it's Trump's fault.
When Obama is out there trying to take credit for the good economy, I bet he won't be mentioning his involvement with this.
ReplyDeleteLife is too short to drive a SUV and keep an auto industry going too.
ReplyDeleteSo. Much. Winning. We are winning so hard!
ReplyDeleteGM is losing, they haven’t produced quality vehicles since the 80’s, all their parts come from China and they’re junk, it’s their own fault, Barry should have let them fail when he had the chance, but instead he chose to give them bailout after bailout, they suck and yet our president is trying hard to get them right, but alas, GM doesn’t care

ReplyDelete^^ good one! Fuck you.
2:33 union workers only assemble the crap that GM gives them, blame GM
ReplyDeleteYou also need to remember this one very important number, 10%, let that sink in, I mean it, absorb the fact that union wages only account for 10% of the cost of a new vehicle, the question you should be asking yourself is where is the other 90% going?
THIS IS TRUE. NO WAY YOU CAN DOUBT IT.
DeleteAnother day, another few hundred lies and broken promises.
ReplyDeleteJobs are coming back. Jobs only I can bring back. Auto jobs have come back. Good paying jobs. Don't sell your houses in Michigan and Ohio. I will fix it. It's all coming back. Plants will be opening up all over. It's roaring back.
He lied?
