Great job ford! Get the tax breaks and then lay-off people!

Things are getting better under Drumpf ?

Good thing they didn't take that bailout years ago... doing great.

Drop the price of the Ranger now

Resist___45 Winning

Sad f.o.r.d. Found On Road Dead

Thanks for nothing Donald!

I hope they are Canadian works

Thanks Trump.

But but but Ford got a tax cut?

It is only 3.5% of the total Employees . How many people are considered based on Age and Status (retirement soon etc)

COIndependent1 Trump winning again bring back manufacturing lol

MAGA

But my husband works for ford.

After screwing over it’s loyal customers with the horrible handling of the takata air bag issue, they are surprised no one is buying their shitty cars and trucks? arrogance AND stupidity takatarecall airbag

JoyAnnReid And the WINNING continues 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Wow 2,300 of the 7000 jobs will be cut right here in the United States. Which Ford factories are facing the Axe. Trump’s trade tariffs are costing Jibs not creating them. Then Trump & Senate Republicans collect the Tariffs & we pay the 25% Tariff Tax when we consume. 2020 Change.

Hey realDonaldTrump is this the winning you were referring to. Ford I hope you fuckers finally elminate the GOP as something to donate to. All they do now is bring real financial insecurity to all of us. They aren't responsible stewards of the land, but instead they prey on us

People crying foul and haven’t bought one Mustang, Focus or Escort

Making America Layoff Again

What did they expect?

This was expected. Ford is dropping their line of cars. They never learned how to build small cars properly and their big cars aren't selling.

realDonaldTrump ur base doesn't care that U lie,but UR clearly confused re: Lie vs truth,There wasn't work in Scranton so JoeBiden 's dad moved biden family to DEL when Joe was a kid,&Joe didn't get $400mil,Like U,claiming he earned it.BTW,A JobLoss trumpfakepromise ? FORD

So.much.winning.

But Trump forbids it ! You might get a nasty tweet

Looks like more winning going on

Congrats trump supporters

Congrats trump supporters

Where you at now Donnie realDonaldTrump

Just keep making 'Merica great again!

Is this what you call winning RandelAleman ?

Aren't we glad there's more good jobs being created than are being eliminated? At least there will be jobs available for those being laid off. Right?

MollyIsBack178 This makes the Democrat media happy That is why we hate the Media.

Oh shit Trump is going to go berserk. SMH. Impeachment can't come soon enough

Happy Summer! Your fired

owned

.WhiteHouse .realDonaldTrump way to go! Deplorable

Job cuts coming. Am I justified thinking these might be related to tariffs?

I don’t think this is what certain voters had in mind when they championed trickle-down economics lol.

So. Much. Winning.

How's that Winning going Trumpstirs?

Did they vote for trump

JoyAnnReid It's beginning. The end of this great economy that Obama built and Dotard is going to destroy.

MAGA = Making Autoworkers Go Away

Love me some corporate America LOL

Winning MAGA

Dumb TrumpTrain and maga fools..... now that trumps free ride off Obama’s economy is ending, watch how he spirals..... we tried to warn you but intelligence isn’t your strong suit

Dam thats alot of managers Ford has. They should have been cut long ago. Oh well, hopefully car prices will drop

JoyAnnReid All praise to hail Hitler Trump!

LoooooooooooL

Making America great again

Oh no

Tariffs likely had something to do with this.

RamLover69

Didn’t they save from the Trump Welfare for the Rich, I mean, Tax Cuts?

RamLover69

JoyAnnReid I’m sure Trump will enjoy this even though there are Republicans that work there.

What happened to MAGA realDonaldTrump ?

This is really sad to read I feel badly for all the people losing jobs at Ford.

Yikes!

Tariff causing Fords foreign sales to tank. Everybody saw this coming. Harley Davidson is also losing sales. Liqueur sales down also. America getting slammed by Trumps deal making. Only hurting American because of his ego☠️

JoyAnnReid 😢

I thought this would make Liberals happy, they hate gasoline vehicles and love EV The lack of sales and Millennials riding Uber instead of being an adult and buying their own vehicle that is what is causing Ford to have to cut jobs. This should make millennials happy

setters4me Nice economy you’ve got there, Little Donnie Dipwad tRump.

Economy is doing the best ever?

Winning!

At FULL Employment in the US, those 7,000 workers should be easily absorbed back into the workforce. virtualworkers

JoyAnnReid What a shock

Tell me again what trump is doing for the economy? Took a Democrat 8 years to fox it. Takes a Republican only 2 years to break it again.

Yet the CEO got a 6% raise and makes over 17 million a year a salary he describes as mediocre.

And there are 7,000 college kids graduating from college, not cool Ford.

People seem to not understand that companies do this all the time even during a booming economy. Restructuring is something companies like to do to see where they can save more money to produce new and better product. This is not a result of economic status.

This won't help. By not making cars anymore, only suv and trucks won't help either. Compete with foreign market with better looking and quality vehicles.

Etc delayed again

Trump making America great. 🤦🏻‍♂️

This affects so much more... fewer jobs, less money, nobody buys cars or trucks.

Shipping jobs to Mexico not the same as cutting jobs! Ford has already shipped those jobs to Mexico, they just don’t want to own up to why the employees will be laid off. I’ve rejected my prior bias for Ford, in favor of more socially responsible companies. A ford won’t be mine.

JoyAnnReid Are you listening Donald?

Omg!

Start your own Business and never get hurt by another lay-off again.

More jobs lost thanks to the Trump administration and this MAGA bullshit! Ford was once strong but now it’s almost gone!

Jobs jobs jobs - CUT!

But but we need trump to run the country like one of his many bankrupted businesses 😂

And a majority of them are overseas. Which is the way it should be.

Gee... Nobody’s buying $80,000 pickup trucks!?!

Winning!

7k “shared” jobs means 14k will be added as unemployed in Jobs Report! It will be interesting what it says at the end of this quarter on the WH “Jobs Report! Who wants to bet it won’t show a “minor” drop?! But still in the green.

Making America great.

Focus needs to be here. This is where politicians should be spending time and energy on but instead it’s on banning abortion. Imagine if they actually fought for ALL life including the Orphanages/Foster Centers/Now 900 laid off workers and their families?

Great work by trump! Isn’t it!

Thank God for the Trump boom! They'll be able to walk down the street to GM and start tomorrow morning!

JoyAnnReid Hey realDonaldTrump FYI! Promises and claims unmet!

Yeah cheaper cars are a coming

after the Tax Scam Bill? America is getting fucked by the 1%.

'Trickle Down Economics Works' - realDonaldTrump

Keep winning USA...

He was right. I'm sure tired of all this winning

So can Donald find jobs for these 7,000 Ford workers?

JoyAnnReid Hey Trump are we still winning?

Will Trump claim credit for this? Highly doubt it

Shoulda done electric 20 years ago. You reap what you sow.

JoyAnnReid Has to be TRUMPS fault right right? TRUMP WINNING LIBTARDS

JoyAnnReid No! Trump is bring more jobs to the USA. TrumpTrain

thedealwithalex Tired of all the winning

F .. fix O .. or R ... repair D ... daily We need larger corporate tax cuts Just keep winning Citizen Kane

But what about Trump' 'booming' economy

JoyAnnReid Awwwwwwwesome!! Trump economics- winning!

JoyAnnReid GOP and tRump impact!

Economy is doing 'great' yet auto industry is shredding jobs... MakesSense

I’m, like, so sick of all this winning.

I wonder how the unemployment rate can be so low... massive lay off, farmers in an unwanted trade war.

Motor companies are the biggest con artist in the world. They have different operations in different locations and hold communities hostage if they don’t huge tax breaks. They restructure every year.

JoyAnnReid The economy is doing great! The news keeps telling me so.

JoyAnnReid Did we make America great yet? realDonaldTrump BillionDollarLoser WorstPresidentEver

Read the tweets from liberal Democrats, they're so anti-Trump and anti-American. They're so elated and overjoyed to see a business fail and people lose their jobs. Proof they don't care about other Americans, Democrats will do anything to win, even if it hurts other Americans.

JoyAnnReid What happened to all the winning?

maga tradewar but that CEO bonus is coming in thick

winning

Booming economy.

Did any of you Trump haters read the article? This is jobs over in different countries not in America

How about just make better cars and keep your employees?

JoyAnnReid So much job growth!

winning maga

JoyAnnReid WINNING

realDonaldTrump So much winning!!

Ford felt it easier to fire 10% of its workforce than: Make better cars/trucks people want. Fixing core issues with the company. Making the hard decision on real waste. Move faster & plan for the future with innovative ideas. Firings like this solve nothing. It’s a bandaid.

JoyAnnReid So much for jobs, jobs, jobs

JoyAnnReid MAGA!!!

Winning

JoyAnnReid They knew this from 4 years ago

I am so surprised Trump isn’t tweeting about this!

JoyAnnReid Winning.

The fact that it's acceptable to fire employees because they are doing better than the shareholders is just totally fucked up. WWJD?

JoyAnnReid realDonaldTrump this is what loosing looks like, just so were clear.

JoyAnnReid This is all on Donald Trump. This is entirely because of Trump's Tariffs.

JoyAnnReid Donnie, what can you say about this?

MAGA

...approximately 20% of upper-level manager jobs will also be eliminated as the company moves to reduce bureaucracy. The job cuts include voluntary buyouts and involuntary layoffs. Not all in the US

In 2016 Ford had more than $4 billion. Before the GOPTaxScam tax shelters cost the US around, if not more than $111 billion a year in tax dollars. Maybe they'll save $4,282,422 in lobbying for more tax breaks this year. At least they didn't take a bailout.

AnotherTrumpFail

potus realdonaldtrump foxbusiness greateconomy liars

Can I get any more of that winning?

It's that great economy the Orange Stain inherited from Barack and is now destroying.

Say goodbye to the middle class, or at least what’s left of it. I see those tax cuts for the corporations was to give the rich more money into illuminate the middle class. We will soon I’ll be indentured servant’s working to survive and not to live.

Stop complaining you work for the company they aren't obligated ti provide someone/economy with employment.

The only jobs Trump creates is for federal prosecutors.

Thanks, Donnie. You’re doing a great job at making America great again. NOT!

Man that really sucks, I can’t imagine the countless hard working people just trying to support their families and turns out they’re going to be laid off soon. 😤

Since we know Trump is not the CEO of Ford or any other job-generating company in the US, why would we believe him when he said HE was going to create good mfg jobs?

Cut 7000 jobs to save $600mil...you mean to increase profit by $600mil, right?

Are we winning yet realDonaldTrump ?

MACA = Make America Crap Again. Thanks, Trump!🖕

Just one of the reasons why being self-employed is best. If you lose your job, it's due to your own failures, not because some executives want more money for themselves and the shareholders.

SoMuchWinning! realDonaldTrump KellyannePolls

Who will be effected? Friends and relatives that work in the outbound counties near Dearborn Michigan that supply services TO the upper crust of Ford. *Cleaning Personnel *Hairdressers *Landlords *Lawncare Services *Etc. Last one in Michigan turn out the damn lights MAGA

The problem here is nobody reads beyond the headline then formulates their opinion based on emotion.

so much winning!

7... Victorious, without any doubt! Revelation 21 7 Those who are victorious will inherit all this, and I will be their God and they will be my children...

Bail me out but see ya later jobs

There’s that winning again 😡

You tired of winning yet middle american zealots? Or nah?

More Trump Tariff WINNING

Thanks Obama... oh wait...

Isn't the economy suppose to be doing awesome?! 😵

Who cares, probably lies...

What I want to know is how long before the repeat of the collapse in 2008 I guess USA is too stupid to learn we have to wait till we totally lose our asses in stand in soup lines while the soup Nazi screams at you no soup for you LOL let’s give rich people some more welfare NOT

All this winning is too much to handle. But... The Trump supporters will say it's a good thing..... Unreal.

WINNING! Thanks Donald Trump! Nice Job!

That can't be, with the greatest IdiotInChief ever, saying that HE created the best of America for us? WhoKnew

What happened to the tax cuts?

Fist pumps and lying to you that’s a populist for you how you like the winning🙄🤡💰

We must be winning from those tax cuts right? LOL yeah right

shawnlsn satire Trump announces tariffs on Ford as punishment---- Whoops, they're a domestic company. But Trump would if he could.

MAGA

I'm glad I didn't even apply there! Phew!

Where’s the Liar in Chief to brag about the economy again. realDonaldTrump

Winning realDonaldTrump GOP

Thoughts for the Ford employees and their families...🙏

MAGA

Hey GOP! How's that billion dollar corporate tax cut workin' for ya? RepublicansDontCare

More winning, thanks to Fat Donnie the deal maker realDonaldTrump WhiteHouse

Trump’s MAGA is apparently not working.

brooklynmarie I was told there would be winning and more jobs?

But, but, but, the economy is doing so well... realDonaldTrump 🖕

realDonaldTrump Did you see this?

The unemployment numbers are lower than ever? Lol AndrewYang

Thanks Trump!

Pathetic. This is why people need to take advantage of all sick days and pto, etc they get! Skip work for mental health, or because you would rather go to the beach. Do not put in all your effort for these big companies!

Tell Trump, your-boy he’ll muscle Ford, ooops Ford told him to piss off. My kind of people, the sand to put the all powerful Wizard of OZ in his place.

technology ubi universalbasicincome AndrewYang consultants AI poverty

😂. They got Trumped

FORD builds a couple vehicles in Mexico! Fusion, Lincoln assembled by cheap labor! Ford Taurus is still assembling cars in Chicago! What happens to the money distribution when you you buy a American assembled vehicle that’s owned overseas folks? Answer these questions for public!

Thoughts & Prayers.

Maybe they should focus on make better, more reliable vehicles instead.

They would not be in business if we didn’t bail them out. Curious ? How much was their cut of trumptaxscam?

Trumps America..

Tick tock.. the countdown to another depression is edging even closer. Giving all the money to a few people always collapses the system. Things will get worse. Invest in guillotine companies.

Sounds like they are prepping in case Trump loses in 2020. They know everything will hit the dirt then.

lisageeruns Thanks to realDonaldTrump tariffs

Winning?

Is realDonaldTrump going to take credit for this too? He should. Its on his watch!

Is this Trump winning again?

I CAN’T STAND ALL THIS WINNING!

Cool. Sounds great for their company. It's all about the bottom dollar

The fact that Ford can lay off 10% of its global white collar workforce to save $600M annually glaringly identifies how much it has been wasting on salaries for unnecessary upper management positions. Let's see how many new assembly line workers Ford hires with that savings.

President BarackObama SAVED the auto industry!! trump will DESTROY the auto industry!

great job Donald Trump!! this is real news compared to fake news that he keeps spewing out in his tweets

Thank trump!

Making America great again...

How 'bout them tax cuts!

More TrumpJobCuts

To get better at your craft, you have to be efficient with your time and staff. Ford is getting better as a company. Our Government should be doing the same thing. Get better and save money for the American people.

Ouch,

This is MAGA for ya

Look at all the JOBS realDonaldTrump has created at Ford!

Somebody needs to do an article that compiles a list of all the businesses closing or laying off their workforce in this booming economy.

What a shit company Ford realDonaldTrump make America great again! So much for job increases eh?

MAGA

Someone's got to pay for those $100k F150 Raptors, Navigators, & Mustang Shelby's.💰 Oh, & let's not forget the $450k Ford GT 😨😱😰 Who evers in charge of Marketing should be fired ASAP 💩⚡💥

Way to MAGA smh

realDonaldTrump all this winning DonTheCon all this winning

It's truck month

Is Trump's supporters aware of that?

Another Trump and big business promise broken. Love those tax breaks they are really helping us right?

Wake up Americans, Trump is not bringing back jobs.

Obama saved automotive jobs when those in charge of the industry damaged themselves & Trump purposely took actions that experts told him would take away jobs. If you work in this industry & you voted for 45 & vote Repub, you deserve what you voted for. ZE-RO sympathy. Enjoy! 😆

MAGA

MAGA. So much winning.

clarionledger sunherald JxnFreePress SenatorWicker SenHydeSmith CongPalazzo Republicans will rue the day they ever heard the name of tRump -- if not for his corrupt character - for his complete incompetency

But what about Tesla? Isn't Ford on the edge of closing if it needs all these cuts?

Wow

realDonaldTrump maga

MAGA really working out well.

So Carrier, Ford and every other 'saved' company is cutting employees due to automation, I assume. Who could have seen it coming?

Gotta keep those ceo salaries up...gotta cut something

Now will you report about this

Is America great yet? Asking for a friend.

They’ll reduce headcount but everyone knows the workload won’t change. Those that will keep their jobs will have a lot more work on their plates.

Yeah! Trump baby! MAGA Trump2020 USA FoxNews

It begins

The “hottest” economy keeps getting hotter...amazing 🙄

I thought the economy is the best it’s been, huh realDonaldTrump. First GM, now Ford.

Didn’t Trump say he was all about “protecting” American jobs? Yet his supporters are complete morons and still believe he should be re-elected lmao 😂

Tell realDonaldTrump how high employment rates are.

SoMuchWinning

Is Ford firing those Detroit Muslims? Just asking because ford imported them for labor years ago and now look what America has - attempted Sharia law in that area and RashidaTlaib FoxNews NPR NewsHour ABC CBSNews NBCNews POTUS

$600 billion annually they will save. Sure glad they got those tax cuts so they could use that savings to trickle down to us peasants who have been so grateful for the crumbs scattered our way! So...Who's tired of winning not?

MAGA
