Politico...the birthplace of fake news.
Sounds like trump had some negotiating leverage.
UTC is the parent of Sikorsky Helicopters and Pratt & Whitney jet engines.
Want to keep those contracts? Here’s what you’re going to do.
I would expect to see the same treatment for GE.
Wow! UTC blinked for 7 hundred thousand a year in tax breaks and the threat of losing some govt. contracts.
The art of the deal prevails. 7 hundred to a multi-billion dollar company is pretty cheap.
The Art of The Deal!
Apply pressure when necessary!
“The major factor that’s changed is we had an election,” Mutz said.
Worth saying again.
Companies like Carrier need to keep in mind the boycott factor. Trump should publicize any future moves like this and let the citizenry exercise its disapproval by boycotts and threats thereof. Bad publicity for Carrier, and other companies would be well advised to sit up and take notice
This is great, now how does he export Hollywood to Mexico???
Trump needs to give companies a 50% take break on each companies salary to employees up to $100K. That will make companies want to hire employees in the us. Don’t count foreign employees or American employees working abroad.
Its called ,"The Art of the Deal".
OF COURSE the Pres and VP should be setting the example.
part of my reindustrialization proposal:
BUILDING INDUSTRY ITEMS
2. any item historically/typically used by contractors for new construction (prior to receiving a certificate of occupancy) incorporated into a US building on or after December 31, 2019
or offered for sale in the USA after that date shall have US manufacture except for:
a. ore extraction and transport
b. wood for exposed use with no readily available US harvested equivalent
c. imported softwood lumber costing more than $1/board foot
d. imported hardwood lumber costing more than $2.50/board foot
e. wood harvested (and processed into lumber/plywood) with due respect for the environment (and nearby people) from private land or from public land upon which a fiduciarily reasonable or multi-bidder competitive auction royalty has been paid
f. natural stone for exposed use
g. essential items not available in a reasonable timeframe at typical cost from any US source due to US domestic industrial labor action
h. until 2024, items upon which a 30% or greater duty has been paid to the US government
i. after 2023, items upon which a 40% or greater duty has been paid to the US government
In the event that 30% or greater duty has not already been paid to the US government, a 100% duty shall be due and payable to the building inspector for his/her use and the building inspector may lien the property at the contractor’s cost until paid.
[Note: Since we expect housing to lead the US out of economic recessions, building industry stuff should be made in the USA for fast and strong economic rebounds.]
Carrier would have the state pay for the 1,100 people. Unemployment, medical so it is fair to suggest they stay.
IT’S A BEAUTIFUL THING!

Well worth watching. Trump’s remarks at the Carrier plant.
This is how goal and vision is articulated then re enforced. Other companies will want to get on the bandwagon of #AmericaFirst - watch.
