GM’s Overtly Political Move To Eliminate Ohio And Michigan Jobs In Order To Hurt Trump’s 2020 Chances
It’s not just that current General Motors CEO Mary Barra owes her high-paying position to former President Barack Obama, (The Obama administration had largely taken over GM with a highly-controversial taxpayer-funded multi-billion dollar bailout) or that she was on Hillary Clinton’s short list of potential 2016 Vice Presidential candidates, but that she is also largely controlled by the market influence of America’s #1 economic enemy – China.

Thank you. I didn’t think I could be more infuriated at anything more than I am the border situation right now, but this is the icing on the cake. The democrats are already blaming Trump for this. They just don’t care how many American citizens lives they ruin.
