Basically, he's been played by GM, and it makes him look bad. That's what Trump cares about. He's got to look like a winning reality TV star. Instead GM makes him look like a fool.
GM has a history of playing the government. Now they played Trump. He's an easy mark. Just flatter him, and he'll play into your hands. |
All powerful men have huge egos. Clinton and Kennedy used their monster egos while in office to charm all the ladies. Having an ego is a given, and granted, years ago Trump also used his ego on the ladies.
But as President, I am concerned about how their ego is being used. When Obama's ego was bruised, he sneakily weaponized government resources to attack his political enemies. President Trump, however, uses his ego to protect America, strengthen the border, increase jobs, provide safer cities, better trade policies, etc. That's why I support him.
Obama gave $Trillions to Wall Street and Detroit in order to bail them out. Wall Street provided few Main St. jobs, and GM took their jobs abroad. Why didn't GM's CEO close GM's plants in China? Did China bail them out? Why screw American workers to please shareholders?
Trump is right to call out GM's CEO. Sorry if you got offended by that.
