In only a week President-Elect Donald Trump has taken complete control of the media, especially with his two big jobs deals, and his detractors — both left and right — are furious over all of it.
As November ended, President-Elect Trump announced that he had brokered a deal with the Carrier air conditioning manufacturing company to keep about 1,000 jobs in Indiana, jobs that the company had announced were to be moved to Mexico. Trump decided to make an effort to put a monkey wrench in those plans.
Trump’s focus on Carrier is not sudden. On the campaign trail Donald J. Trump often targeted Carrier for its February announcement that it was closing its Indiana-based manufacturing lines and moving several thousand jobs to a new plant in Mexico leaving thousands of Indiana residents without a livelihood.
So, Carrier became one of Trump’s first targets before he even took the oath of office. The President-Elect announced the deal to much coverage in the media and while there were many naysayers, in the days following his announcement polls have shown that Trump’s deal is wildly popular with the American people.
A new poll sponsored by Trump-hating Politico finds that the President-Elect’s Carrier deal is a big deal as far as voters are concerned. Fully 60 percent of combined voters in the poll said that the Carrier deal caused them to view Trump more favorably.

Trump Is Already Controlling The Story on Jobs, The Economy and His Opponents are Furious”
On Wednesday the Indiana-based Carrier air conditioner manufacturing company announced a deal brokered by President-Elect Donald Trump to keep up to a thousand jobs in Indiana instead of moving them all to Mexico. The deal helped our new president fulfill one campaign promise, and before he even takes office at that. It was a move that not only made the feckless Barack Obama look very, very bad, but it also likely completed Trump’s take over of the Republican Party in the minds of the American people.
The rumor mill is 
The one impression America came away with as the first and only vice presidential debate ended on Tuesday night, October 4, was that Democrat candidate Tim Kaine was more like a yip-yapping Chihuahua instead of the Pitbull that a second chair running mate should be. But he also figured as the perfect running mate for the biggest liar and crook ever to run for the White House because he threw one lie after another at his opponent.
Over the weekend The New York Times stirred controversy with a story based on purportedly shocking revelations about Donald Trump’s taxes. The paper insisted Trump got away with paying no taxes at all in the 1990s and this, they intimated, makes him some sort of hypocrite. So, to borrow a phrase, what at this point does it matter?
This year at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), I was fortunate enough to get some time to interview one of the most redoubtable conservative activists in the nation, 
The news media has been all a twitter over the small group of ne’er-do-wells, government leeches, and has-beens who claim to have been Republicans in the past but who are now nonetheless supporting Hillary Clinton for President. But those who pretend at being Republican and support Hillary need to be ostracized and cast out of the center right coalition, not because they are traitors merely to the Republican Party but because they are traitors to the entire country.
THIS is what the left has wrought, folks. We have as the left would define it “a protester” — but who should really be termed “a criminal rioter” — telling the media exactly why he and his pals are setting Milwaukee on fire… it’s because, you see, “the rich people, they got all this money and they not like, you know, tryin’ to give us none.”
Listen, I get it: Trump is not a conservative It is just that simple. But continuing to oppose him even after he has fairly won the GOP nomination is self-defeating for conservatives–no matter if Trump wins OR loses. Here’s why.
A new study on the use of welfare benefits by illegal and legal immigrants in the U.S. finds that households headed by immigrants use an average of $6,200 in benefits annually, fully 41 percent higher than the rate used by native born welfare recipients.
Target’s unpopular decision to force its customer base of mothers and children into mixed-sex bathrooms and changing rooms is creating a huge economic opportunity for other firms — but none have announced plans to exploit the opportunity, according to a survey of press aides and marketing experts.
As he looks to the exit as the last year of his last term winds down, Barack Obama is about to take one more stab at curtailing the Second Amendment with yet another push to force so-called “smart gun” technology on the firearms industry and it’s a plan even police officers stand against.
Back in 2008 Barack Obama was given little notice when he told the editorial board of the San Francisco Chronicle that if he became president he’d work to destroy the coal industry, both for miners and power providers. Now, as his presidency comes to an end we see he has kept that promise.
On Monday Georgia Governor Nathan Deal vetoed a religious liberty bill that would stop state authorities from forcing Christians to participate in gay marriages, but one of the “reasons” Deal said prevented him from signing the bill is fraught with a pretzel logic he can’t possibly believe.
As the presidential primaries roll out across America it has become clear that the voters are revolting against the establishment — both on the left and the right. Usually we think of the Republicans and Democrats as being polar opposites, but in today’s climate large numbers of voters on both sides are lining up in opposition to the elites for exactly the same reason. Both the left and right are in revolt over “fairness.”
A Chicago Tribune TV critic was aghast that Americans often enjoy the commercials during the Super Bowl. Apparently he was upset about all that capitalism going on and mad that Americans don’t rise up and throw their shoes at their TVs in revolt. Corporations are apparently all venal and wasteful, he alleges, and we shouldn’t stand for it.
I hate to burst your bubble, America, but if Donald Trump were to become president we would not get a president who “blows up the system,” nor would we have a president who “does great things.” What we’d have is a do-nothing for four (or perhaps 8) years. But that may not be a bad thing.
Without question Barack Obama has proven to be the single biggest liar ever to sit in Washington D.C. But we can’t say we weren’t warned. His Alinskyite training aside, everyone should have realized what a liar he was going to be with his claims that if he were to become president he would take no vacations because the nation needed him so badly. And what has happened since election? Well, thus far he’s spent $70 million of your tax dollars on vacations.
The year 2015 is now in the rear view mirror and Baby New Year has waddled in, diaper and all. But baby, you are still young and naive and I hate to say it but you and the generation you are ushering in will have an awful time once you find out what liberals have in store for you.
A new radio spot being played on Chicago talk radio by a purportedly “Christian” environmentalist group is using a pack of lies about Christianity and the environment in order to push left-wing Senator Mark Kirk into signing onto the President’s global warming policies.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is a perfect example of an agency that needs to be cut back, defunded, and dis-empowered. A recent examination of its budget shows that it has spent tens of millions on assembling its own private army replete with aircraft, machine guns, body armor, and tanks not to mention money wasted helping foreigners push “global warming” and unnecessary “grants” given to partisan, left-wing groups to push so-called “environmental justice.”
A new report show once again that government workers–all of them–are leeches, most of whom we should fire. Now we find the outrageous statistics showing that federal workers earned on average 78 percent more in total compensation than private sector workers in 2014. 78 percent! This is intolerable.
Our Constitution is supposed to take precedence over all foreign laws or any arrogant edicts from the fetid U.N. But now Obama has made a move that would put the mechanics of the response to terrorism in some of our biggest cities in the hands of foreigners. President Obama has essentially just signed away U.S. sovereignty.
GOP candidate Dr. Ben Carson says that the non-profit Muslim activist group CAIR broke the law with its recent political attacks on him.
Apparently getting rid of dangerous, mentally ill illegal immigrants wasn’t good enough for the U.S. government because now a federal judge has decreed that every mentally ill illegal sent back to where they belonged should be brought back to the U.S. And guess who this idiot judge wants to pay for all this re-importing of dangerous, mentally ill illegals? Yeah, you guessed it on the first try.
