GM to Lay Off Up To 2000 Workers in Lordstown Ohio and Lansing Michigan

 

Donald Trumps main campaign slogan… “MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN”. You wouldn’t know it by reading an announcement by General Motors stating at least 1250 workers will be indefinitely laid-off on January 23, 2017 in Lordstown, Ohio, along with another 840 workers on January 16, 2017 at the GM Grand River factory in Lansing, Michigan. Can he save these workers like many believed he did at the Carrier Air-Conditioning Company? Ironically, Donald Trump will inherit the problem during his presidency, even though he claims that he is ‘the JOBS president’. People that work at both of these plants overwhelmingly voted for Donald Trump, and now these 2000 workers will be let down by the man they voted into office. Trump is about to find out that even though he is about to become the most powerful person in the world, as POTUS, he will have absolutely no power in situations such as this.

The plant is not moving jobs to Mexico, but claims that because of dropping sales of these particular models of ‘The Chevy Cruise’ and Chevy ‘Camaro’ and Cadallac’ATS’ and ‘CTS’ luxury cars, they can no longer make a profit worth keeping the assembly lines open.

So what will Donald Trump do about this issue. Is he going to tax GM for laying off their workers? In all fairness, GM had already disclosed before Trump became President-Elect that they were furlowing workers at these plants.
