Looks Like Ford Is Feeling The Heat

[Tom Horn]

GM is government owned and government controlled, ford is on the verge of it, and Chrysler is owned by the Italians a socialist country.

So beat your mule and then try to ride it outta the holler, dumbass.

My fact shot over your head...it landed way behind you, try to go find it...

We're the ONLY country producing automobiles that is NOT government supported. You know that Ford would have fallen along with GM and Chrysler if they'd bit the dust, right? The parts suppliers would have gone broke leaving Ford jewed, screwed, and tattooed. And then consider paying over a million employees and business failures around the car plants unemployment benefits and food stamps for 2 or 3 years...taxpayers turned into welfare recipients. It's the only thing Obama did for all the wrong reasons that turned out good.

No, none of that propaganda would have happened....

Kiss my ass....I know the car business and you don't or don't care to....it ain't about how you bend the sheet-metal or how many speakers the stereo has. My whole family worked in the auto industry....talk your shit to somebody who didn't grow up in Detroit.

Unions with their bosses and crazy high labor costs destroyed the car companies but the nanny had to step in, the best thing would've happened if they would've just folded.

The #2 automaker in the world is now dead? Maybe Toyota will be next

The jap carmakers are now going through what GM went through in the 90's....aging work force, plants that need to be retrofitted, growing healthcare and pension costs. So they're outsourcing just like we did, looking for slave labor and when that happens, quality is a forgotten word. Toyoda (the correct spelling) isn't nearly as dominant as they once were....millennials hate the Gen Xers, what they wear, their music, what they drive. Changes are coming and we can recapture the car market if we play our cards right.

The Trumpsters sure live in a fantasy world.
Fact: Trump has his clothing line made in Mexico and China. Maybe his hats should say, "Make Mexico and China Great Again." But then thats old news and facts that the Trumpsters ignore as they suck up Trump's BS.
And then there is the fact that Trump has opted to use Chinese steel and aluminum for construction materials for two of his last three projects. There goes Trump, shitting on American workers again.
How Trump Ditched U.S. Steel Workers in Favor of China
Do I think Trumpsters will care? Of course they won't. Their convictions, like Trumps are paper thin (and the paper was made in China too).

My Trump stuff is made in the USA....so....

Oh, you mean his cheap hats that being made by Latino, Mexican and Salvadorian immigrants, when they aren't raping, killing and selling drugs?

 

[owebo]

The OP indicates no changes whatsoever in Ford's plans to optimize their profits by producing small cars in Mexico, where they are much more popular than they are in the US. Yet, the Trumpettes as so desperate for any Trump credibility, the mere fact that Ford talked to Trump indicates to them that Trump's awsome influence has Ford's knees shaking.

Also, for reason's of ignorance, the Trumpettes have no clue as to the downhill chaos that a tariff would cause of independent Ford Dealership across the nation, and their 10's of thousands of employees, as well as Ford suppliers, employees, and stockholders. in fact, they seem to be wringing their hands in glee at the thought of putting hundreds of thousands of Americans out of work by destroying Ford.

But it is all rhetoric, anyway, since the president has no power to slap a tariff on anybody. Somehow, that got lost in Trump's hyperbili.

Well then Ford doesn't have to worry about the tarrifs, do they....

Nope. And neither are the investors. The stock price remains healthy in spite of Trump's rants.

Propaganda....again....

Please, stop......

There was no reason for it, except be a nanny to some fucked up union. Typical socialist government involvement where they do not belong. Progressives are nothing but a bunch of fuck ups

No reason for saving our auto industry? I fully supported the bailout...ask around and see if I'm a progressive.

What bailout?

the bailout that Ford didn't need OR use.

 

[Vandalshandle]

Ford stock rose today 2.30%. The DOW was only up .62%.

[Tom Horn]

I'm all FOR the tariffs..in fact if I were boss I'd tell the japs that the next car carrier that enters US waters will be sunk by a US submarine. Now to the foreign assembly plants here in the US....what Reagan did was fine but those days are gone. I'd tell the japs and germans, 100% of the cars they assemble here must use US produced chassis, engines, and drive-trains. They'd either lay down or run for the hills and we'd seize those plants and tell Wall Street to give venture capital to some new AMERICAN auto makers. Bring back the old monikers....Packard, Studebaker, Pontiac, Mercury....all new in concept and execution. We'd be the world's swinging dick again....who'd want a BMW when they could score a 2020 DeSoto?

Ford shares were selling for around $12 last time I looked.....that's healthy?

GM is at $32...I rest my case.

crawl back under your donkey.

I will as soon as you let go of it's pecker.
