COINCIDENCE? Ford Cancels U.S. Plant Move To Mexico After Trump Declares . . . (truncated)
U.S. Herald ^ | February 17, 2016 | Bob Amoroso

Can it be that “The Donald” is already affecting American policy, without even yet being the Republican nominee?

It sure looks that way, or perhaps it’s just coincidence. However more likely than not, Trump’s constant bashing of Ford moving to Mexico, has apparently been making ripples both within the news media and perhaps among the voting public.

This looks like a repeat of a bogus story that circulated back in October:

Ford has all the freedom they need to move to Mexico. Nothing is stopping them.

Know what? Many people have no idea of the power of the bully pulpet.

Now, barkie has tried to use the power of the bully pulpit, but he used it against the common will.

Trump, with with the force of the people behind him, can achieve amazing things. Like Mehico buying us a wall.

I can’t find anything else about this. Only this one source. Anyone have other reputable sources?

Un-F’ing REAL! But this is JUST AN EXAMPLE of what leadership means!

The next step, as Trump knows, is to take the steps needed to reign-in EPA, OSHA, and unions to make manufacturing actually PROFITABLE in the US, once again.

Despite what Donald Trump tweeted, Ford is still building a massive plant in Mexico

That's only half the song. Here it is, uncut.

Gloom, despair and agony on me;
Trump has destroyed our economy.
Except he isn't in the White House yet
Gloom, despair, I dumb as dumb can get.

Coinkydink.
Totally unrelated to Trump.
I can hear the Ford spokesman now;
“Who is Donald Trump?”

Strictly just a rare isolated unrelated coinkydink.

"COINCIDENCE? Ford Cancels U.S. Plant Move To Mexico After Trump Declares..."

Remember when voting for Obama was going to change the ocean levels? The same cult of personalty is behind this headline.

If it moves to Mexico, it’s MEXICAN business.

Twist it any way you want, free traitor.

Those US jobs saved by this mean nothing, right??

This is the power of a president, and even a potential president. Trump understands this clearly. It illustrates the value of having a non-politician in the White House.
