It has come to my attention from a recent press conference
between Josh Earnest, the President’s Press Secretary and the media, about a
discussion about Trump’s recent meeting with Carrier and consequently saving
American jobs from leaving the United States.
One cannot blame Carrier or any other company who is fleeced by an
Administration who is not “business friendly”, at least from an American point
of view.
The following is a portion of that press conference dated November
30, 2016 about what Trump did and the Administration’s response, for which I
will correctly analyze, in regards to what was not said and will most certainly
ring true, especially with those who are and have been unemployed for a long
time and no prospects for any future employment via the Obama Administration.
To wit:

Q Thank you. So, late yesterday,
Carrier announced a deal with President-elect Donald Trump to keep close to a
thousand jobs at an air conditioner plant in Indianapolis. I guess all of
the details of the deal haven’t been announced. But I was wondering, does
the White House have any thoughts on kind of the strategy that has been
employed to maybe lean on a private company to get them to keep jobs in the
U.S.? Is that a strategy that the White House approves of, that thinks
it’s a good thing to do? I guess I just wanted thoughts on that.
MR. EARNEST: Well, obviously we haven’t seen the
details of the announcement from the company, but we’ll obviously -- or the
early indications are that this is good news. And obviously we’d welcome
that good news.
I know that the President-elect has indicated that he
deserves credit for that announcement. And I guess what I would observe
is that if he is successful in doing that 804 more times, then he will meet the
record of manufacturing jobs that were created in the United States while
President Obama was in office. There were 805,000 manufacturing jobs that
weren’t just protected or saved, but actually created while President Obama was
in office.
Now my friends, if one has kept track of the employment
figures that 805,000 figure does not jive. I believe that the Obama
Administration is speaking from a “Globalist” point of view. I am quite sure that figure is correct, but
it was not specific to American employment.
Those manufacturing jobs are either overseas or in Mexico, where the
construction of factories is booming.
So President Obama has set a high standard,
and President-elect Trump can meet that standard if this Carrier deal is
completed in the way that he expects that it will be. If he does that 804
more times, then he will have matched the standard established by President
Obama -- at least when it comes to manufacturing jobs. The one difference
would be that the President-elect is talking about protecting jobs, and the
metric I’m using is actually creating jobs.
If you go to protecting jobs, there are more than a
million jobs in the industrial Midwest that were saved when President Obama
made the decision to rescue the American auto industry. And the long-term
benefits of that fateful decision that was not initially popular has yielded a
substantial benefit for the entire country, but certainly for the industrial
Midwest.
Yeah, the auto industry was saved because Obama gave illegal
immigrants money so they can purchase brand new vehicles! It was “fateful” because of whose pockets the
money had gone to. If the public knew
what he did, they would be up in arms!
Only the lawmakers knew what was going on, because they held the purse. The so-called “high standard” that Obama set
up is for “global employment” which is why he supports TPP and the world has embraced
it, because it means more employment for their countries at the sacrifice of
American jobs. I am sorry Mr. Obama, the
only standard we are interested in is the “standard of living” we used to have,
before you came into office.
When jobs leave the country everyone suffers, because of the
lack of domestic economic activity. This
is why consumer credit is at an all time high and will continue to do so until
economic activity in the United States is revived. I have personally noticed a man in a
fast-food restaurant attempt to use a charge card for a twenty-dollar
purchase. He had gone through at least
three different charge cards and all of them were declined and had to abandon
his order… he never returned even after several hours because I was there for
that long using their Wi-Fi.
President Obama never had a problem patting himself on the back for a so-called "job well done", but whenever something went wrong or awry, he quickly dismisses it and places the blame somewhere else.
Ever since Trump was elected the economy is just beginning to move in the right direction. It is quite simple that the changes that Trump is planning for the future of America has inspired the business community; something the Obama Administration has never done or ever had any intentions of doing. If you were or are in a small business, you are on Obama's radar; targeting them for the increases in ObamaCare and will put many out of business, which is Obama's true intention. Why? Because he will tout that TPP will be the savior for jobs, but he would never say "American jobs". And even if he did he would be lying as he did so well as he sold us on the so-called "Affordable Care Act". Ever since the "Affordable Care Act" became law, there were a good number of rural hospitals that closed their doors, which was also intentional, but that my friends is another story and it is not pretty.
