Trump called upon a small business owner at the rally to help make his case; that he is and will be a job creator for America. “Everybody I’m sure has seen the 60 Minutes piece from five years ago,” said David McNeer of Newton. McNeer was highlighted in that famous 60 Minutes report from 2010. In the report, McNeer said his company, Maxim Advertising, was hurt by the recession and was getting smaller and smaller. “The next morning he got a call from Trump`s office and he said we`d like to do a little business with you, and so he put him next to some people that did some business, and that was really genuine I think on his behalf,” said David McNeer’s father, John McNeer.
David McNeer says after the 60 Minutes report aired, he got calls and text messages from customers, suppliers, and competitors, and a special call from Mr. Trump. “But, I did not get one call from one politician. Not from the City of Newton, not from the County, not from the State, not a U.S. Senator, not a U.S. Congressman. Nobody took five minutes, or three minutes, or five seconds to pickup a phone and give me a call. Hell, they could have done it for a photo-op for god’s sakes, it was two days before the election,” said David McNeer. “But Mr. Trump, out of the goodness of his heart, asked what he could do to help us,” said David McNeer.
David McNeer says Trump cared about him and his small business then, and he cares about bringing jobs back to America now. McNeer now does business with Trump. “If you’re wearing a product from Maxim Advertising tonight, and a lot of you are, you’ll look in there and you’ll see the label, and you’ll see ‘Made in the U.S.A.’ You’ll see it on these buttons are made in the U.S.A. Those shirts are made in the U.S.A. Everything we do is made here in the U.S.A., and that’s the way we put America back to work again,” said David McNeer.
If he wins, I hope he does care about small businesses. We’ll see.
He pledged to use the EPA to enforce ethanol mandates. The EPA has done all in its power and some things that aren't to try to shut down energy production in the USA from the coal industry to coal fired power plants to the war on hydraulic fracturing of oil and gas wells.
How are small businesses going to navigate regulations on everything from filling in mud holes to carbon dioxide emissions and "Make America Great again" without the energy to run factories and deliver goods?
Wake up and smell the coffee.
Either he LIED to the folks in Iowa to get the support of the Governor whose son is an ethanol Lobbyist, or he is lying now.
Open your eyes, people. He isn't what he says he is. he's just 'making deals'.
