President Trump achieved another big win for America today, by convincing Foxconn to open a new factory in Wisconsin instead of Asia.

http://www.reuters.com/article/us-apple ... SKBN1AB258

That is a lot of jobs and a big investment and shows the value of "Made in America" under a strong president.

Awesome. I guess many people will open manufacturing plant in the US if the US tax payer pays half the bill.

And the story is inconsistent. Three billion are supposed to be the handout to Foxconn and they are supposed to be half the investment and development costs, so total investment would be 6 billion, not 10.

There is also the little tit bit that given Trumps track record those jobs will never happen, just like all the other "saved" jobs of his, that never materialize.

Carrier started laying of people this month i think, the new Ford Plant goes to China instead of Mexico, and not to the US.

And yesterday he announced no trans people would be allowed to serve in the military, about the only sensible things he's done so far in his term.

What's illegal about it, it was illegal before Obama allowed it, now Trump is reverting back to how it was before.

Yes, let's bring back slavery. I mean, that's no reason in itself. But, Rob, what is sensible about this. Should gay's and lesbians be outlawed again in the US military? Ah well, two steps forward, one step back, I guess.

Never sees to amaze me, on one hand, the Republicans are against government meddling with personal issues and on the other hand, will do anything to block LGTB community, including banning by the government, mostly on religious grounds. Yeah, the land of the free....

If that counts as a win, then you can add Trump donating his salary of $100,000 to the Department of Education (while stripping it of $9B funding). Praise republican Jesus!

Yep. Between Trump and his little elvish klansmen Sessions, who he's trying to off anyway, the LGBT community can definitely expect Trump fighting for them: against them at every turn.

Off course he does. He steps anyone in the back if it suits him. Look at the attorney general, Sessions, he was the first senator to back Trump, Trump pisses all over him. At this moment I will not be surprised if there was a tweet:

Oh BTW, do you really think Trump personal had the glancing argument? 10bn or 6bn investment and 3bn of subsidies and all done within 6 months. Or may I dare to suggest that Trump is taking credit for something he didn't do?

Ironic how someone who dodged the draft is now telling us who can and cannot serve in uniform. I suppose you didn't don your country's uniform?

If the toughest and bravest individuals we have are so concerned about transgenders sharing facilities with them, I fear what happens when they're all on the war front.

Ultimately it had nothing to do with principles, or even generals. Initially I assumed it was the neanderthal Christians behind the ban, but it in fact was just horse trading for his monument to stupidity: the wall. And like everything else in Trump's life: women, contracts, employees, children, principles, Attorneys General--transgendered people were disposable if he could get his tiny hands on what he wanted.

since it will safe somewhere between 2 and 7 mill US$ to do, he could just stay in the WH for 2 to 6 weeks. But of course he can not do that, since he needs to skim of the US Taxpayer by going to his Hotels and play golf.

The Pentagon isn't acting on Tweets, so they will not implement the no-transgender rule. And, as I understand it, senators aren't very pleased as well. So probably nothing will happen.

What if I would like to transition from a man to a cat? Should I be allowed to serve in the military as a pretend cat or is that a violation of feline rights?

'trans' gender is not possible given the current scope of science. People who believe they are something other than physical reality are mentally ill.

The day a cat graduates high school and can have a reasonable conversation at a human level is the day I will support your decision to be transcat and join the military. Otherwise, why would we risk allowing a human to dumb itself down to a cat's intelligence when it can't even follow orders? A transgender is still human, still retains the same level of intellect, and can follow orders as well as the next person. Try to come up with a better analogy.

Half the incentives are for capital costs and half the incentives are for workforce development. Neither (alone or combined) represents half of anything else.

Also, none of it represents "U.S. Taxpayer" money. It is all state and local funds.

Have you ever talked to anyone who is actually real trans? Not this Caitlyn Jenner BS but a real, actual transgender person? No? Go talk to them. Do research.

This is a wonderful example of inanity piled on top of inanity.

The scope of science is broad, encompassing all of the natural universe. Perhaps you mean the current state or knowledge of science in some particular area?

As for judging who is mentally ill, I should probably be well advised to leave that determination to professionals in the medical field.

We almost never have a problem distinguishing between State and Federal monies even when, ultimately, they come from the same pockets..

Good point. They will no doubt begin to plan responsive action after official orders (not tweets) are issued. And there will no doubt be foot-dragging while Congress and the nation gets involved in the debate.

In the meantime, one more item to add to the Trump Lies listing.

Please, Bob, it is a mute point, really. Taxes are taxes, you are right that it will not go through the US Treasury, but still, it is public money and that was the point.

I'm a psychiatrist, licensed in two different states. Being transgender on its own is not considered a mental illness. They can have mental illnesses just like every other identifiable group of people. There is quite a bit of research with data pointing to the fact the gender is more than just the bits in between your legs. In the simplest terms I'm able to conjure, and perhaps Doc can explain it better, with regards to the development of gender, one isn't just born a boy or a girl. Gender doesn't begin to develop until several weeks into pregnancy, and there are structures in all conceptions that have to basically either be "turned off" or "turned on" and depending on what sequence of offs and ons results in how those structures develop into things like testes or ovaries--again this is a very simplistic explanation of hundreds of pages of embryology. Having gone through medical school and studied all of this, it is not hard for me to understand that there can be variances in this development. Neurological development has multiple factors as well, and also includes these variances. Transgender individuals can, if allowed...., function well. Part of the problem with respect to the discussion about transgender issues is that very often these people are seen as disturbed due to the fact that they aren't understood. Security is a crucial part of development. They are also often not accepted or treated well in their homes, and often end up on the street, at which point they behave like any other delinquent because like everyone else they need proper parenting.

Sure there are. Homosexuals acknowledge the true reality of being attracted to the same sex, nothing crazy about that. 'Trans' people are exhibiting the most basic cognitive dissonance about their own physical state.

Gay: "I am a man, attracted to other men"

Trans: "I am not a man, I am a 'woman' attracted to men, "trapped" in a mans body. You might be attracted to men, but you are physically a man. Doesn't matter how much genital mutilation you accomplish or hormones you inject.

This is one of those times where there is no right or wrong. Read the fine print of this agreement. Is Foxconn being wooed here with tax breaks? What is Foxconn? Where do they get their money?

Look at the Carrier deal. So much winning there. Similar issue.

I would have thought that this plant most certainly would have been built in coal country, not in Wisconsin. That would most certainly helped the out of work miners that Trump made all those promises to. Now that would have been a success for Trump among the miners anyway. I find the word success does not really fit Trump so far as far as real accomplishments go. An alternate reality so far from him and his followers. Sick people have surely not seen a thing to help them. A wonderful plan he promised and as usual it is bullshit.
