Trump's help moves steelworker to tears
- Thread starter i am herdman

As seen on Fox & Friends
President Donald Trump on Thursday spoke at a newly reopened U.S. Steel mill in the St. Louis-area town of Granite City, Illinois, calling the plant's reopening a "great victory" and an "honor."
Officials with U.S. Steel said tariffs enacted by Trump led to the decision to restart a blast furnace at the mill, which brought back 500 jobs. The company has promised an additional 300 jobs by October, when it plans to restart a second blast furnace.
After Trump's speech, KSDK News spoke to a steelworker who got emotional when discussing all the president has done for American workers.

Good for him.
What about Carrier?
What about Harley Davidson?
What about soy bean farmers?
If this continues very long, we will be saying the same thing about American auto workers.
Ford F series pickup already projected to increase in cost by $5700 for each pickup.

Some things are necessary. Some things will sort themselves out over time.
But your retarded ass wouldn't understand anyways.
Shit, I hate Trump but more US steel is a good thing.
Go back and watch that video again. Those are the "uneducated" people the left hates because they support Trump. Rifle thinks that guy is worthless, but thinks Jay Z's opinion should matter.
just another illusion sista - just like all the other trump illusions.like the illusion that
mexico is going to pay for the wall, like the illusion that there is going to be a wall. like
the illusion of all those carrier plant jobs he saved, the illusion of harley davidson.
trump has no idea of how to govern (if he even wants to). he's too lazy to do
the work to learn, and too arrogant to listen, so its all b.s., illusions, delusions, profiteering, russians, and juvenile twitter smack talk.
we had the worst government since the late '20s with bush, with trump conservatives have scrapped the bottom of the barrel. america cannot continue to exist as we know it with another russiacon president and congress. they are just too corrupt, and they corrupt everything they come into contact with. its like the mellons, and carnagies and morgans of yesterday with 100x the money.and greed.
this country was about to elect a competent person to lead the free world, instead our
election was hijacked by our greatest enemy, who placed a child they can control in
the presidency, and to make it exponentially worse they control a good portion of
congress as well.
now, the 2018 elections are under attack, and neither trump or congress has done a single
thing to protect us, instead they have removed protections, and hold political show hearings
to attack our institutions. why wouldnt they - they stand to benefit from russia's attack on america. trump needs a russiacon congress to protect him, and the russiacon congress has to retain power to continue to cover up the fact that they also benefit from russias attacks.
it is a sad day in america, we think america is invincible but it is not - no more
than the egyptians, romans, mongols, or persians.

This is concrete evidence that trying to support cheeto makes one dumber.
Murox from 2002 - July 26, 2018: "Nobody should be able to vote in this country without passing an IQ test and without being a property owner."
Murox on July 27, 2018: "Third-generation steelworkers who have to work 80 hours/week to put food on the table in a cheap area to live who are too uneducated, dumb, and lack any skills should have their political commentary given a high level of credibility."
Clearly, Murox saw Giuliani's extreme flip flop on Cohen and decided it was a logical strategy:
Giuliani on Cohen, May 2018: "The man is an honest, honorable lawyer."
Giuliani on Cohen, July 2018: "I don't see how he has any credibility. There's nobody, that I know, who knows him, that hasn't warned me, that if his back is up against the wall, he'll lie like crazy, because he has lied all his life."
I mean, really, just how dumb can people be? Murox has spent 16 years on here lobbying for IQ tests and property ownership as barriers to voting. Now, he claims that I am the one who wants to muzzle this demographic.
@sistersville , @i am herdman , @19MU88 , @mlblack16. , @Dog Rescueer , do any of you want to defend Murox's and Giuliani's flipflop? Would you like to see any of the former cheeto supporters on video who are blaming him for breaking his promises and them losing their jobs because of it, or are we only supposed to listen to one deplorable?
Would you rather associate yourself with a hard working individual who works "80 hours/week" and lives a normal, productive life or associate with illegals, inner-city thugs, and wannabe socialists...all of whom are a drain on our system?

Some of the hardest working folks in the USA are illegals. That’s why they came here.
Wtf does this even mean?!?! If they came across the border illegally then by definition they are ILLEGAL.
If you could select three people to play cards with you socially, who would you choose? Like your question, this clearly has nothing to do with what was being discussed, but I thought I'd continue to change the topic.
Would you like to defend Murox since none of the others who liked his post have attempted? For sixteen years, he had advocated for an IQ test and property ownership in order to vote, but now he is accusing me of being the one dismissing a third-generation steelworker's opinion and only supporting a guy worth hundreds of millions.
Seriously, what backwards, fvcked-up world are you guys living in? How could somebody seriously attempt to reverse the roles on a forum where numerous people recall his previous statements on the subject?
In a similar manner how black people think I'm responsible for slavery and owe them reparations, I'm not responsible for what Rox said in the past. People can change their opinions without your permission. As for Giuliani, yeah, he talks out both sides of his face, just like every other politician, Democrat or Republican. You're acting as if this is something unique only to Giuliani.
BTW, you clearly dodged his statement regarding seeking advice from rappers and other clueless celebrities.
Then, which part of his post were you liking? The part about Jay Z? Where have I ever said his political opinion should hold any more value than any other person's?
Over years, a politician may change stances on an issue when 1) they honestly change their opinion 2) they realize it will garner them more votes.
This situation is clearly different - one with legal ramifications. A month ago, Cohen was "honorable" and "honest." Now, that same person claims that he has always know Cohen was a habitual liar.
That's not talking out of both sides of his mouth (not his "face," like you claimed, which is not the saying). That's simply lying to extremes on both sides in order to avoid legal problems.
Because it was as foolish as the rest of his post. Where have I ever sought advice about politics from "rappers and other clueless celebrities"? Do you really think somebody as arrogant as me - somebody who rarely ever comes across somebody I think is more intelligent and well-rounded - would seek political advice from somebody due to their celebrity status?
Christ, your post is as dumb as his.
Rifle...I would assume a third-generation steelworker would have much more skin in the game than a big portion of folks who comprise the left in this country.
Are you going to sit there and act like you haven’t, for years (especially the last two), called conservatives stupid, redneck, morons, and any other derogatory name you can think of? You really want to pin that one solely on murox?

For the last two years, I have called cheeto supporters "deplorables." That is backed up by his statement that he "loves the uneducated" and stats that show he had a higher percentage of uneducated supporters than any other Republican candidate.
Now, again, what the fvck does that have to do with Murox's hypocritical accusation when he is the one who has advocated an IQ test and being a property owner to vote?
It’s related because you are just as accusatory toward people who you want to portray as less than you. Both parties have people of substandard intelligence, but if having skin in the game was a prerequisite to vote, republicans would almost never lose an election.
And that still doesn't explain your support of Murox's statement. He made two attempts at points in his statement:
1) That I degrade/mock the opinion/vote of deplorables due to many of them being uneducated.
2) That I allegedly think Jay Z's opinion on this should be valid due to him being a rapper, black, or a celebrity.
The first one is absurd for Murox to claim considering that he has lobbied for sixteen years to have voting requirements consisting of an IQ test and being a property owner. I mock the lack of intelligence of many cheeto supporters, but I don't claim they should have their voting rights taken away. That is Murox. That first comment shows him to be a huge hypocrite.
The second point makes absolutely no sense since I have never claimed any celebrity, rapper, or black's opinion has any more validity than any other person of equal stature.
So, again I ask, what exactly are you liking of his post, because it makes you look as much of a fool .
Good thing you were wise enough to ignore the IQ requirement, Tier Three.
Pretty much. I didn't know if it was true or not, but it was funny as hell the moment I first read it.
