Ford and the UAW negotiated this deal back in 2015.

From the 3.15.17 speech - He promised ait last week nd he delivered on it, speaking with the heads of Ford this morning 3.28.17

The deal made recently is helping $1.2 billion dollars go to the three factories. $200 Million for an advanced Data Center at Willow Run. $700 million at the Flat Rock Assembly plant to make electric car and autonomous cars. That will be 700 jobs.

"We want to be the car capital of the world again," Trump said. "We will be. And it won't be long, believe me."

Okay Blackhawk you win. I still think it is great that it came to pass. Since it was in the works in 2015, it did not get implemented then or in 2016. It took Trump to help get it implemented, so we can at least give him credit there, can't we?

Um, agreements of this type taking one or two years to implement is not uncommon. If Ford wanted Trump to have credit, then why did they go out of their way to make it clear that the agreement took place in 2015?

The plan is a good one and it's always good when jobs are created. Trump taking credit for it is cheap opportunistic theater. No more, no less.
