Then why wasn’t Kasich trumpeting this months ago, when Trump first put this issue into his talk track?
I think FORD will support Trump big, for president. Lots of business will be for Trump.
If Kasich did all this, it’s a shame no one heard about it.
Now Trump has been banging on FORD and hard, ever since he got into the race, making it impossible not to notice.
Poor Kasich.
Ok, let’s say Kasich’s right. Why hasn’t he campaigned on it? Why hasn’t he jumped in when Trump was talking about Ford going to Mexico and say, “Hey, I already did that”
Maybe I’m just cynical but this whole thing is strange. Maybe Kasich’s just brilliant and waited to bring this out but the guy never struck me as brilliant. I’m thinking this the GOPe trying to take the issue. And Trump is the ONLY one who has made jobs an issue up til now.
What facts? Crap from Red State? Ford could have been talking to Mexico & Ohio. Ford was moving towards Mexico then heat was put on them by Trump! Kasich/Ford talks that saw NO movement since 2011??

Kasich & GOPe are sleazy lying slobs! A corporation the size of FORD, there is probably more than one plant. Kiss my arse!
“That is on top of the 18 plants already in Mexico, and there are least five more planned or under construction. Mexico has seen a 40% increase in auto jobs since 2008 to 675,000 last year while the U.S. saw only a 15% increase in the same period to more than 900,000.
Earlier this year, Ford announced it will spend $2.5 billion on new engine and transmission plants in Chihuahua and Guanajuato, in central Mexico, creating 3,800 jobs.”

How so? If Kasich did this deal in 2011, why was Ford considering moving the plant to Mexico this year? Kasich seems to have pointed to nothing he did this year to change their mind about this plant.
Now the best thing for Kasich is to remain Governor Kasich. He's given a pathetic interview or two since he started his recent campaign.
I did not know that Kaisch was trying to force Ford to give up its plans to build a plant in Mexico.
Wait a dog gone minute. I’m confused. The insinuation is that Ford’s CURRENT PLANS TO BUILD IN MEXICO are being changed. WHERE DO YOU SEE THAT TRUMP IS TAKING CREDIT FOR JOBS RETURNING TO OHIO FROM MEXICO IN 2011?!!!!!!!
I’m sorry but I don’t believe you. From everything I have read on the son of a mailman (and I’ve read a lot), he was not getting anywhere in his talks with Ford.
Trump’s 35% reverse import tax proposal is what did the trick.
