Still winning. Feels great.
DJT to the rescue.
Surely some Obama - Biden judge can be found to block the deal.
I’m happy for them. The public sometimes forgets how one solid business can improve the lives of many families for several years at a time. It’s not something you only see in old black and white movies.
could be a good deal assuming that the details work out okay

A-K Steel = Armco Kawasaki Corp. works well
Only to be overturned by SCOTUS.
I'm very happy that President Trump did an outstanding job at once again making critical contributions towards saving the US steel industry after Obama and Biden both did their best to run it into the ground.
It's really sad to see that out once dominant steel industry has been so beaten down that it's only realistic option was a takeover by the Japanese with guarantees of substantial Japanese re investment in modernizing and upgrading our U.S. Steel.
If done right , this will help both the US and Japan take on the unfair completion from China and other emerging competitors
Ah, yes. In 2016, when asked about President Trump’s statement about creating jobs in America, for America, Hussein stated something close to: “what’s he gonna do, wave his magic wand?”
As soon as Hussein returned to power in 2021, he began destroying as many jobs as possible.
Barack The Magic Negro practices with underwold ‘magic’ while living with his ill-gotten gains.
For those of you in Rio Linda, the Los Angeles Times were the first to use the term Magic Negro, in reference to his Highness Hussein.

Not to mention $8,000,000,000.00 in direct tax revenue, PLUS the secondary and tertiary rollovers of payroll revenue injected into the Texas economy.
AND giving the drug cartels a HUGE boost in potential sales.
Dan is running offg at the mouth about "saving children" from this evil.
If he was serious he would ban all 7-11s from selling candy and booze.
Close liquor stores throughout the state.
Crappy fast food? Gone.
You get the picture.
I say remove all the little fav spots and booze in restaurants (kids might sneak a drink, ya know...), corner beer/wine/liqueur stores, grocery stores and gas stations that THEY go to and see just how many of the above mentioned consequences THEY start howling about.
Funny how Greg and the boys get all self-righteous when an election is on the horizon...

He was against before he was for it. But foreign ownership of a vital piece of a military manufacturing is now ok. We should not be importing foreign capital. US capital should be put to work in good paying investments.
“We should not be importing foreign capital”
You cannot be serious!
You'd much rather the steel plant be closed?
‘US capital should be put to work in good paying investments.”
US capital had every chance in the world to save this plant and declined.
And forget about the government buying and running it.
That never works, let alone in a highly competitive business.
Good. But this is also a long game.
He’s dismantling the blue wall brick by brick to set the stage for the GOP nominee in 2028.
Hear, hear!!
Borrowing that post, Hobo!!
Without the merger, US Steel was going to shutter.
It’s one of the oldest companies in America.
Rockefeller created it after he bought Carnegie Steel.
No Body has replaced Rush.
Either you like imports or you don’t. Why should US Steel and the Steelworkers Union be allowed to have imported capital? At least there should be a tariff on this import. Japanese capital is undercutting US capital and that’s only possible because Japan cheats and engages in unfair trade practices and subsidizes their exported yen. The US dollar cannot compete fairly against the yen. Trump has said so numerous times.
Cliffs has US dollar capital. Why is our steel plant going to the cheap yen? Level the playing field. There is a lot more f unemployed US capital ready to go to work but it must be allowed to compete fairly.
