CNN’s Camerota Suggests Trump Used ‘Threat’ to Get Carrier Deal
Legal Insurrection ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Nice little company you got there. Wouldn’t want to see nuthin’ happen to it . . . CNN’s Alisyn Camerota suggested this morning that Donald Trump used a “threat” against United Technologies to get its Carrier subsidiary to agree to keep manufacturing jobs in Indiana.

Even the Indianapolis Star reporter who had criticized the deal as being “an extremely expensive campaign promise” took issue with Camerota’s suggestion of a “threat.” CNN: the network that would depict President-elect Trump as using mob-boss tactics.

CNN’s Camerota Suggests Trump Used ‘Threat’ to Get Carrier Deal

Hey Alisyn, what famous politician uttered these two phrases?

"I won!"

"I have a pen and a phone."

Four years of the most negative spin they can put on any subject if they think it will hurt Trump.

It will make the snowflakes on the coast fill good, but will harden the hearts of those in flyover country.

A choice has to be be made and I believe the alt-left media has chosen badly.

Wrong, CNN (as usual).

There was both a carrot and a stick used. But, SO FREAKING WHAT if he did threaten United Technologies and its billions in defense contracts? The goal was to keep jobs here, and it worked. IOW, government (or pre-government, since he isn’t even President yet) is working for the average person in the street - ain’t that a novel concept?!

FU, Communist News Numbskulls!

The true libtard glasses are those disgusting round spectacles like John Lennon (Lenin?) used to wear. See someone with those, and you’ve identified a Leftard/Communist just as sure as if you saw his/her CPUSA party card.

It’s called leverage and all good negotiators use it when possible. Could CNN possibly report on Trump for once without all the spin?

Sometimes I wish that I could stop you from talking
When I hear the silly things that you say
I think somebody better put out the big light
'Cause I can't stand to see you this way

I said the 15 months ago, biased CNN and the rest of the lying corrupt network media are de facto Trump opponents. And they had no business whatsoever being involved in moderating political debates.
