    I think people understand the Carrier deal was a "win" for Trump, but I'm not sure they get how big it could be.http://dailycaller.com/2016/11/30/the-brilliance-of-donald-trumps-deal-with-carrier/ …

        "trying to affect change" - you mean 'effect'...if 'affect', it has insinuation of being insincere

        then the insinuation is it is an affectation...not an effecting of change

        it was a v good piece - too many miss Trump's age & formative figures of his youth (Ike, Macmillan De Gaulle) were paternalists

        I think it's valid to point out how politically successful a move like this is, but have to resist spin.

        And what a YUGE win for #Carrier! They're getting enormous tax breaks for sending > 1000 jobs to #Mexico. Is this #winning?

        this is nothing more than a governor of a state cutting a deal with a company to keep some jobs. Happens daily.

        It's always good to keep jobs here... I'm just afraid CEO's are going to threaten moving in order to get the same deals

        How is that? 700k of IN tax payer $ to Carrier instead of 35% tarriff that Trump threatened. Grifters gotta grift

        The carrier effort made me wonder why that time was not devoted to intelligence briefings. His ignorance scares me

        well said. That was my gut reaction (I knew it did little of practical significance, yet liked it for some reason).

        .@mattklewis good piece on politics of this. Also smart, cruel for Pence to leave workers hanging if state incentives would've done trick.
