"Chalk up another win for the president-elect?

Toyota is set to make a $10 billion capital investment in the U.S. over the next five years, Toyota Motor North America chief executive Jim Lentz said during an interview at the Detroit auto show, Reuters reported.

The $10 billion figure matches Toyota's investments from the previous five years.

The move follows similar commitments to U.S. production made by competitors Ford and Fiat Chrysler.

Donald Trump on Thursday specifically targeted Toyota in a tweet.

“Toyota Motor said will build a new plant in Baja, Mexico, to build Corolla cars for U.S. NO WAY! Build plant in U.S. or pay big border tax,” Trump tweeted.

On Monday morning, Trump lauded Ford and Fiat Chrysler for their recent announcements in a pair of tweets.

“It’s finally happening – Fiat Chrysler just announced plans to invest $1BILLION in Michigan and Ohio plants, adding 2000 jobs. This after Ford said last week that it will expand in Michigan and U.S. instead of building a BILLION dollar plant in Mexico. Thank you Ford & Fiat C!” he tweeted."

You have to give Trump credit for identifying how easy it would be....to be a better president than zero.

All he had to do was be pro-America and communicate that clearly. Duh.

I can't wait for one of these businesses that Trump singles out to try and call his bluff.

He's going to make an example out of the first one that does it. Art of the Deal.

Another PR boondoggle for Trumptards. Meanwhile, that Mexico plant is still being built.

Toyota actually makes some of the most "American" vehicles (like the Camry, Tundra), unlike some "American" manufacturers who got sweet bail out money.

GM = Government Motors

Chrysler = FIAT/Fix It Again Tony

Ford got called out for the plant in Mexico and rightly so, but they didn't take the bailout and have adjusted when needed. They are a well run company. Bill Ford stepped aside several years back and brought another guy in to better run the company. It takes balls to do that when your name is on the front of the car and it proved him to be a very smart guy who could see what the company and shareholders needed.

Two quick questions. Do you want to see Trump fail? And, do you dislike when he is seen in a good light for keeping jobs here in America?
