Trump humblebrag lying again

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump
I am working hard, even on Thanksgiving, trying to get Carrier A.C. Company to stay in the U.S. (Indiana). MAKING PROGRESS - Will know soon!


A few hours after Trump's tweet, Carrier tweeted:

Carrier has had discussions with the incoming administration and we look forward to working together. Nothing to announce at this time.

Carrier union president Chuck Jones is skeptical, but will take any help .. wants Trump to know they make furnaces, not air conditioners http://www.theindychannel.com/news/local-news/donald-trump-tweets-about-getting-carrier-to-stay-in-indiana

@2trillMafia @tomlobianco @KFILE @realDonaldTrump Talking about what is manufactured in Indiana, not entire company. http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/articles/2016-05-02/trump-s-job-saving-pledge-greeted-with-skepticism-in-indiana




It's not clear if the 400 jobs Carrier will keep in Indiana were ever marked to be moved to Monterrey, Mexico.

His shamelessness knows no bounds. Is he even supposed to be negotiating stuff with anybody right now anyway?
