Except Trump already waffled on his "plan". 

He said he would impose 35% tarrifs on a company like Carrier to taking jobs to Mexico. Well, he had a chance here to hold firm on that.

Instead Carrier is getting to move 1000+ jobs to Mexico and getting a tax break on top of that. 

A lot of Trump's talk was just that -- talk. He's not nearly as tough on these companies as he said he would be. 

 

Well gee hes not actually the president yet lol, how exactly is the pres elect supposed to enact any sort of tariif when hes not actually in office yet ?

a little common sense would help.   

he also said he wants to cut corporate taxes which would be a bigger incentive than Carrier got. 

This was just a test drive of his theory. When he goes to congress it will give him ammo. "Look we got Carrier to stay for a measly 7 million dollar tax break over 10 years, imagine the jobs that will come back or be created if we lower the tax rate to 15%".

Just remember Trump will always be a few steps ahead of you. While you are trying find reason why 1100 people keeping good paying jobs is a bad thing he is already prepping for his next move. The media still has not figured this out.... Trump picks controversial cabinet person, 1 hour later makes a tweet about flag burning.... No one is talking about controversial cabinet pick... 

Trump's biggest advantage is liberals think he is stupid. Liberals always make this mistake, they assume if someone is not "enlightened" like them they must be an idiot. In the meanwhile the person they underestimate runs circles around then.
