He will play the role of supreme savior and bask in his own adulation.

When it later all falls apart he will claim he had nothing to do with the terrible deal.

he knows that he's a loser - always has been, always will be.

So he's always flailing about, trying to make everything look like a WIN for him.

He just wants it open ? Whether it is open is due to the rules of capitalism. If an enterprise is not profitable, it closes. What a great businessman!

Mar 2019

Why the fuck has no one taken away his phone and/or tweeting ability??

Sure, it's great to watch him digging his own grave ever deeper, but just how incompetent and impotent are his advisors and inner circle? Has no one pointed out how demented and dumb he sounds? You'd think he'd be terrified of being seen as a fool. I don't get it.

I heard an interview and Rudy admitted that he tried to take the phone and the tweeting thing away. But he couldn't get away with it. Yes, he tried, but the idiot would have none of it, and Donald would not give the stuff up.

These job losses are thanks to the Trump economy.

Trump took credit for the economy after the election when the stock market went up before the inauguration.

He owns these job losses. It is still his economy.

Time to buy the plant from GM and add it to your portfolio of business success! Trump Casinos, Trump Wine, Trump Shuttle, Trump Steaks. I am pretty sure Vlad will share blueprints from a 1962 Lada! With a little tinkering, your biker gang friends can retrofit the design to burn high sulphur coal.

Since this is a car from the time of American greatness, seat belts, safety glass, and other intrusions on freedom will not be offered.

GO FOR IT!

She is the CEO of GM and has fiduciary duties to the stockholders but Trump, the man with the Fecal Touch, is CEO of all CEOs and she should do what Dear Leader wants.

If they had just been willing to work for free market slave wages, it would still be open and everything would be FINE.
Sure, Donald.

Waiting for the statement from the GM CEO that says she hasn't ever had a conversation with His Orangeness about anything, ever.

I never thought I'd say this, but I kinda want dementia to work FASTER.

Possibly Dump’s REAL reason for this round of whining? Vlad’s probably unhappy. And this was announced last November.

Barra’s also been investing in electric auto technology, another unpopular move for the blood-for-oil fascists.
