    Again, we need to know the terms of the deal.

    This carrier deal seems a PR stunt to me tbh.
    Agreed. Terms would be nice.

    Tax subsidies and attaching conditions to Federal contracting are legit. Whether it's affordable writ large is another thing. It certainly doesn't comport with traditional notions of free-market enterprise, but maybe that isn't so important to Republicans now that they have the power.

    Whether it's proper for the President to single out companies who don't bow to his policy preferences is of arguable propriety. Not hard to imagine what Trumpistas and ans of business would call Obama if he did the same.

    In due time, the ans of business will have something to say about this. Using the power of the presidency to boss them around is bound to ruffle a few feathers

    Tax code and duly enacted treaty law are different than the President singling out companies and using the prestige of his office to get them to knuckle under

    And if you do what the president wants, you can put ykur logo all over his press op. Trump just did an ad for Carrier.

    as a one off, it's a Potemkin Village, not a policy.

    as a policy, it's totally unsustainable.

    Trash's supporters are so easily conned, so ignorant of the Don The Con's games.

    Rexnord up next. More fodder for his "I'm The Greatest" victory tour? "All y'all clap and holler real loud, I'm The Best"
