Another one hits the dust.
They are a pack of thieves.
They want to ship American industries overseas, depriving Americans of jobs. But they still want Americans to buy the products made overseas until our wealth runs out. They care more about lining their pockets with a temporary profit than about America.
They attacked him for seeking to keep car manufacturing in Detroit instead sending it to Mexico.
Trump told them that he doesn’t need or want their support.
Ouch!
Can he keep this up for six months???? I wonder if he is like Clarence Thomas and sleeps 3 hours a night
Trump still speaking truth to power.
I love it!
I used to like the Club for Growth, but they seemed to sell out to the GOPe back when W was president.
Go Trump Go!
My takeaway is the hilarious reference to his “high energy” speech. Even Breitbart (may he rest in peace) is taking shots at Jeb.
I’m with Club For Growth. Do we want to go back to the 1950’s, days when GM, Ford and Chrysler built junk that would not last 100,000 miles, and paid their low skilled assembly workers premium wages and benefits which were built into the monopoly price of the vehicle? Global competition has made the modern vehicle an incredibly attractive, safe and reliable machine available to everyone.
Trump is not one bit conservative
You can always tell the people/organizations who are love America and who are tools for the globalist agenda.
I don’t know much about the CFG. Do they get as riled up about the hostile business environment this government and the courts have created? What does the record show?
If they don't make things in the U.S., there's nothing "American" about them.
You can have a desk drawer corporation with a D.C. address but there's nothing "American" about it.
Usually just looking for some taxpayer cash.
I wish Trump would call for a “Union Fairness” law- where unions are FORCED to stop negotiating ridiculous contracts.
When you force a factory to pay someone $80K per year plus benefits to sweep floors, that’s 4 people who could be off welfare doing a non-technical job for $20K each
When Unions force companies to keep workers employed in non-existant jobs, that ruins business. For example, railroads were force to pay ‘brakemen’ until they retired, even after modern railroad cars stopped needing an actual brakeman.
Or how about steel factories whose labor costs got so high the we do not make steel in the USA anymore...all because of unions.
UNIONS are the thugs now- not the evil corporate basses.
“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
I suspect that Trump has room to use taxes to punish USA car manufactures who use foreign labor while still overall lowering taxes by enforcing constitutional limits on federal taxes.
I expected to be flamed supporting the Club for Growth and free trade.
Trump wants to punish Oreo for moving to Mexico. World sugar prices are 50% lower than US prices due to (taxpayer) subsidies. All that money goes to people like the exceedingly wealthy, Florida based sugar growers, the Fanjul brothers. Brother Jose gives big money to Marco Rubio, Alfonso gives to Democrats.
In the case of autos, the GM bailout and bankruptcy cost the taxpayer $11 Billion, the bondholders $30 billion, the shareholders (think your IRA) maybe $60 billion and the unions zero. The rising legacy costs are still there. Ford barely survived because they saw bad times coming and borrowed tons of money early. They still have the legacy costs that they are trying to avoid, hence the move to Mexico and not Tenn., where the union can still create havoc for them.
The Club for Growth identified Ted Cruz when he was nowhere known in Texas, but running for the Senate. They gave him a couple hundred thousand to kick-start his very early campaign.
.
It doesn’t look like he answered their charge.
He just pooped in his hand and threw it at them.
.
Scumbag CFG is an open borders cesspit cheerleader.
...and the fascists take yet another hit. Bully! Bully!
the Club for Growth attacked Trump for his proposal to penalize Ford Motor Company for putting a car manufacturing plant in Mexico rather than Tennessee.
Trump deserves this attack.
Raising taxes on businesses because they don’t behave the way one wants is a Leftwing concept.
Infact Trump has businesses overseas which makes his denouncement of Ford hypocritical.
If Trump is the nominee he will get hammered on his businesses in Europe, Asia etc.
Note to Trump supporters Trump does not do business soley in the US.
