This time for Stamford, CT based Charter Communications promise to create 20,000 jobs - made in 2015. I guess Trump has access to a time machine?
http://www.courant.com/politics/hc-charter-communications-trump-20170324-story.html
President Donald Trump on Friday praised a plan by cable company Charter Communications to hire 20,000 American call center workers, but the hiring initiative dates back to 2015 as part of the company's successful efforts to merge with Time Warner Cable.
It's the latest corporate jobs announcement made at the White House that capitalized on plans made before Trump won the presidency. Other major companies including General Motors and Ford have allowed Trump to take credit for job decisions that either pre-date his election or involve market forces outside the administration's direct control.
