Trump calls for boycott of Harley Davidson in steel tariff dispute
Harley Davidson has a very clear and winable lawsuit against Trump for market manipulation. “Many @harleydavidson owners plan to boycott the company if manufacturing moves overseas. Great! Most other companies are coming in our direction, including Harley competitors. A really bad move! U.S. will soon have a level playing field, or better,” Trump said in a Twitter post. Trump backs boycott of Harley Davidson in steel tariff dispute President Donald Trump backed boycotting American motorcycle manufacturer Harley Davidson Inc (HOG.N) on Sunday, the latest salvo in a dispute between the company and Trump over tariffs on steel. The Wisconsin-based motorcycle manufacturer announced a plan earlier this year to move production of motorcycles for the European Union from the United States to its overseas facilities to avoid the tariffs imposed by the trading bloc in retaliation for Trump’s duties on steel and aluminum imports. In response, Trump has criticized Harley Davidson, calling for higher, targeted taxes and threatening to lure foreign producers to the United States to increase competition. “Many @harleydavidson owners plan to boycott the company if manufacturing moves overseas. Great! Most other companies are coming in our direction, including Harley competitors. A really bad move! U.S. will soon have a level playing field, or better,” Trump said in a Twitter post. |
Harley is unlikely to import motorcycles to the U.S. from overseas plants, meaning Trump’s threat that the company will be “taxed like never before!” is little more than an angry old man shouting into the wind.

And as he goes to war with Harley Davidson...
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/polit...cid=spartanntp He's an enigma of duplicity. |
A sitting President boycotting an American company..........as he steps in to help Chinese and Russian companies.

He is a very simple man. You either support him 100% or you are dead to him.

whatever he is doing comes back to him. example: he forced french investors to go out of the iranian natural gas field south pars. and who jumped in? the state-owned chinese energy company CNPC took over Total's share in the development. VERY SMART MOVE of mister moron ;-) china also announced that they replace the COMPLETE import of soy and cereals from the USA with products from other countries. the european union is at the moment preparing a new trading contract with mexico and other latin american countries. and the richest american people are uniting against trump. here are some nice statements from the koch brothers who are currently not giving their money to the republicans but investing in advertising against TRUMP: He "regrets" having supported some Republicans who said, "they will be for our principles and they are not," Charles Koch said in a rare interview at his network meeting in late July. From now on, it will be "much stricter" to check whom one is supporting. The Republicans should no longer take the network of the Koch brothers for granted, his spokeswoman warned. "If you're a Republican who voted for the worst budget bill in history, you can count on us to hold you accountable." Even for the support of democrats who share their agenda, the brothers are now open. "I don't care what initials appear before or after a name," warned Charles Koch. "If you are a democrat and collect enough votes for a financial reform that breaks down the boundaries for banks and families, you can be sure that we will work with them," his spokeswoman said. Koch, Gates, Bezos and many many more american billonairs are tired from trump. let´s see if a trump can win against money in a country like USA - i doubt it. the only help he will have again is the help from Putin. but not because Putin likes him - he just knows that no other than trump can destroy US faster as this idiot. i really wished people would wake up and see what they have done. |
Harley has been struggling for more than a few years. They make an over priced product that appeals to less and less people.

You hear him use this technique all the time when he talks about "failing" newspapers, or "over rated" actresses or "ratings disasters". Trumper's think they win the argument by attacking the perceived success of their opponent. They think its ok to attack as long as they belittle first. But hey, if you think its cool for the Orange Fool to attack a company and its employees that that's obviously your call. I personally think its fucking stoopid. |
He has no comprehension of business .... none ... nada ... niet .....
One one hand, he expects foreign companies ( like BMW, Toyoto, etc .. ) to setup manufacturing in the USA to sell to the USA market ( as well as export ) to bypass tariffs , but on the other hand cannot accept that a USA company will do the same and setup in Europe to sell to their European market bypassing tariffs... If it was not for Dad, he would be mopping floors at the local peep show..... :2 cents: |

I just bought a Harley because of his threats. I really had no intention of buying one until that.

Although we consider HD an "American" company, they are also an international company. They make and sell products around the world. It's going to be difficult for them to make bikes in the US at US wages to sell them in Mexico or Asia. Most US companies do this. Ford, Chevy, etc.... All of them produce cars all around the world. The problem is the Trumpers there seems to think HD is "only American". |

The Ukraine, Canada, Paraguay, India & China only produce half of the US altogether, however, Argentina & Brazil produce more than the US together! I don´t think China has a problem dealing with any of these other countries & I know Brazil will love this, considering the wall´s still not up and he still wants to do it... Maybe Mexico will have to think about producing, i´m sure China and Mexico can work something out :2 cents: The US soybean traders will be so fucking annoyed with Trump if China go else where, maybe if the world stops trading with the US altogether! Trump´s a fool & will create the US collapsing! |
