l****z 发帖数: 29846 | 1 During tonight’s CBS Republican presidential debate, Donald Trump was the
only candidate to address the news that Carrier will be sending hundreds of
American jobs to Mexico.
The GOP frontrunner said that under a President Trump, Carrier would stay
and “build in the United States because we are killing ourselves with trade
pacts that are no good for us and no good for our workers.”
Video footage emerged yesterday, which went viral, capturing the anger and
heartache of 1,400 Indianapolis workers who were informed that they soon
would be out of work, as their company will be sending their jobs to Mexico.
The New York Post described the video as “stomach-turning.”
The company representative tried to quiet the crowd, as workers of different
races and ethnicities cried out in outrage and despair. “Let’s quiet down
,” the company representative said in the video.
Trump brought up Carrier’s move to Mexico, not just once but on two
separate occasions during the debate.
Early in the debate, Trump said:
I’m going to bring jobs back from China. I’m going to bring jobs back
from Mexico and from Japan, where they’re all — every country throughout
the world — now Vietnam, that’s the new one. They are taking our jobs.
They are taking our wealth… We’re going to bring that money back. You take
a look at what happened just this week, China bought the Chicago Stock
Exchange, China, a Chinese company. Carrier is moving to Mexico, air
conditioning company. Not only the ones I talk about all the time, Nabisco
and Ford and — they’re all moving out.
Later in the evening, Trump discussed the video specifically, and how he
would address the problem as President. Trump said, “Carrier is moving —
and if you saw the people, because they have a video of the announcement
that Carrier is moving to Mexico, OK?” |
