>Pethokoukis on Trump: Worst economic speech by American politician Pethokoukis on Trump: Worst economic speech since Mondale
>President-elect Donald Trump's speech about his deal to keep Carrier jobs in the United States was "absolutely the worst speech," economic policy analyst Jimmy Pethokoukis told CNBC on Thursday.
>Trump boasted about his deal to keep about 1,100 Carrier jobs in Indiana, and also took aim at other companies who may be thinking about moving jobs out of the country.
>"Companies are not going to leave the United States anymore without consequences. Not going to happen. It's not going to happen, I'll tell you right now," Trump said on Thursday.
>Pethokoukis, a scholar with the conservative-leaning American Enterprise Institute, called it the worst economic speech since Democratic presidential nominee Walter Mondale promised to reverse Reaganomics in 1984.
>"The idea that American corporations are going to have to make business decisions, not based on the fact that we've created an ideal environment for economic growth in the United States, but out of fear of punitive actions based on who knows what criteria exactly from a presidential administration. I think that's absolutely chilling," he said in an interview with CNBC's "Closing Bell."

It was a pretty horrible speech, but Trump made it fairly clear that the main focus would be retaining companies in the by making it a beneficial environment for them. He said lower taxes and repealing non-sense regulations are his immediate goals. He then, said companies that do leave will be penalized. He said "we won't make it easy for them".
Shitty fucking article

Who cares what a cuckservative thinks? The faggot probably thinks that we should just sit around and let the corporations do whatever the fuck they want with no consequences.

also this is literally what you favourite politican of them all, bernie was planning.
he is crafting a law right now that would punish ousourcingi with extra taxes and hopes to push it through with the help of trump.
so yeah, there's that.

This is what alarmed me the most
Benjamin Diaz
MSM and libcunts are grasping at anything they can. The man just stopped Carrier from sending all their jobs to Mexico yet all they can do is nitpick his speech which was a casual press junket.

Trump is doing what he promoted. They are shocked he didn't broke his promise, but still he isn't even president yet. It's little too early for all this circus.

The """"greatest negotiator in the world"""" couldn't even get them to keep half the jobs in the country after throwing millions of dollars at them, and now every company that wants some sweet tax breaks is going to imitate Carrier. Fantastic job, Trump, you loser.

This part especially is great. What consequences are they suffering from, paying less in taxes while still moving jobs out of the country? I'm sure they're real sad about that. Trump is a moron.
Joshua Garcia
this is what gets me
there were no consequences, they got everything at our expense

They are just butthurt because Trump is makign Romney bend the knee and isn't going to give him the Sec of State position. This new rounds of "conservatives" bashing Trump these last couple of days is no doubt a "warning" coming from Romney's handlers.
Connor Reyes
Gosh you guys, you guys in your basements, I have been a Trump supporter since he went on Alex Jones, but now that Jiminy Pleistocene of the American Lobbyists' Bullpen has criticized a speech Trump gave after getting Carrier to stay in the US, I can no longer vote for him.

This really illustrates the disdain that these think tanks have for the American worker. Such a big win, there were people crying on the plant floor and celebrating. Be prepared to see every win try to be dragged down. This is just the way it will be.

you do realize that these tax schemes are exactly what fucked the american worker in the first place right
those jobs will be gone before he's even sworn in
Landon Murphy
Weird, I thought he's not going to be sworn in at all.

Fucking this. Liberals perfectly okay with throwing cash at big banks and Isis. But are mad because trump cut taxes for a company to save jobs.
Nathaniel Anderson
Just so we're clear:
>"The idea that American corporations are going to have to make business decisions, not based on the fact that we've created an ideal environment for economic growth in the United States, but out of fear of punitive actions based on who knows what criteria exactly from a presidential administration"
is "chilling"
Whereas
>"The idea that American workers are going to have to make life decisions, not based on the fact that we've created an ideal environment for economic growth in the United States, but out of fear of punitive actions based on who knows what criteria exactly from a corporation.
is "not chilling"

>the president isn't gonna let us walk all over him and l'm scared Globalist super billionaire fucks should be shitting their pants for the next 8 years
Lucas Anderson
I mean seriously he goes on say to "punitive actions" but that's not what he is saying AT fucking all. He is going to cut regulations and lower taxes. This guy is a fucking asshole that is purposefully spreading fake news.
Luke Campbell
Ok smart ass. Explain to me how an American worker bailed out by Trump, who will spend his earnings here in the US is worse than a mexican who took his job and never visits the US. Please fucking enlighten this blue colar worker here. A worker who has first hand experience in fighting for his job as his owner hires more mexicans with visas.
Protip: your junior college ass cant

so if i incorporate and start paying my wife to take care of the kids, how much could i get trump to give me when i threaten to outsource my wife's job to mexico?
Christopher Bell
>this is the worst speech I ever heard >damn you trump
Adrian Cooper
The state government negotiated the "tax scheme" to keep them and I assume it works to their benefit.
The reason the American worker has been fucked is usually due to companies being able to keep the upside of being an American company and the upside of doing most of their manufacturing/work outside the country. Not at all the same.
Parker Butler
>(((((MSM)))))
Jayden Evans
Nah, they're perfectly okay with giving big money to governments who only misappropriated and blame the rich the economic issues.
Gabriel Flores
The frount of the NYTimes would be running pro-Hillary "greatest deal ever made". If she gave a company a tax deal to save a few American jobs. It would be wall to wall coverage But that wouldnt happen. Instead, it would be how shes gonna tear down those evil borders and let Julio come in with his 10 kids and vote democrat for the next 50 years. Meanwhile, corporations make bank off of exploiting his Mexican ass.
Brody Young
so your employer actively threatens you and you stay there then want to fault others for your problems?
that mexican carrier plant is still getting built and there was 1200 jobs that are still going there

Lincoln Stewart
I could have sworn the original plan was to punish companies who moved their jobs, not reward companies for not moving all of their jobs.
This isn't a great deal, or a win. It's a huge fucking compromise. Trump was supposed to put his foot down. So far he's shaping up to be a bit of a cuck.
Matthew Stewart
Your argument sounds like its useless and the American worker should kill himself. It took one phone call for Trump to save 1100 jobs before hes even in the white house. Obama never picked up the phone to save a single job.

yup, he got completely taken advantage of it and its hysterical watching these idiots defend it, all it takes now is for the mere threat of moving jobs and he'll give them a kings ransom

For some sort of expert trotted out in front of a camera by a 24x7 news channel this guy is particularly retarded.
Is the concept of actual consequence to decisions so alien to the business world that they just cannot comprehend them?
Export US jobs and pay more to import your goods here. Fuck you.

They...didn't...move...the...jobs...offshore...
So what is he meant to be punishing them for?
Goddamn, you are a gigantic fucking moron who can't even make a coherent post.
>Trump was supposed to put his foot down
So he's meant to...punish companies...for...doing...what he asks?
Please, help me here shill, try and clarify your position, because right now it sounds like you're just stating contradictions over and over.
