“General Motors is sending Mexican made model of Chevy Cruze to U.S. car dealers-tax free across border… Make in U.S.A. or pay big border tax!”

Trump Lies & Tweets (Sprint Jobs) 12/28/16

Speaking to reporters on Wednesday, December 28th , Donald Trump said the following:

“I was just called by the head people at Sprint and they’re going to be bringing 5,000 jobs back to the United States…I just spoke with the head person “he said because of me they’re doing 5,000 jobs in this country.”

That is a lie.

Sprint later said that the jobs were part of a previously announced commitment by Japan’s SoftBank. Softbank owns a controlling stake in the mobile phone carrier and previously said it would invest $50 billion in the United States and create 5,000 positions.
Although Trump claimed credit for SoftBank’s $50 billion investment in the United States, those plans predated the election,

So, Donald Trump keeps lying… and, we keep counting.
