A Boeing factory Trump visited to promote his jobs agenda has since laid off workers, a pharmaceutical company whose CEO Trump met with has outsourced positions, and Trump still won’t share the details of his Carrier “deal” that gifted Carrier millions in taxpayer-funded incentives, even as it keeps shipping American jobs to Mexico.
“Job growth has slowed, the economy is sluggish, and American workers continue to be laid off, but Donald Trump is pretending like everything is just fine,” said American Bridge President Jessica Mackler. “Trump promised he’d ‘bring back jobs’ and he’s dishonestly claiming that he’s done so, but that’s no surprise from a lifelong con man and liar who’ll say anything and sell out anyone to get rich. It’s a slap in the face for working families fighting to get ahead.”
