As he does with everything, we now know that Donald Trump lied about the deal he made with Carrier. He claimed he had helped save 1,100 jobs at the Indiana assembly plant, but it later turned out only 730 production jobs would remain, with some 550 being shipped to Mexico.
Chuck Jones, president of the Steelworkers Local 1999 union, called Trump out for his lies, commenting:
“But he got up there and, for whatever reason, lied his ass off. Trump and Pence, they pulled a dog and pony show on the numbers.”
The notoriously thin-skinned President-elect could not resist picking up his phone and tweeting out this in response to Jones:
Chuck Jones, who is President of United Steelworkers 1999, has done a terrible job representing workers. No wonder companies flee country!

Ah, so it’s all the fault of the union and its leadership. But then Trump decided to attack the employees:
If United Steelworkers 1999 was any good, they would have kept those jobs in Indiana. Spend more time working-less time talking. Reduce dues

And now, as a result of Trump’s tweets, Jones is receiving death threats:
“Calling me names, wanting to know if I have children. I better watch out for myself, and they know what kind of car I drive, that I better watch out for my kids.”
Sounds like what the mafia does when someone dares to write or report something damaging about them. And since Donald Trump is known to have ties to organized crime, it’s no surprise that his unhinged supporters would engage in such thuggish behavior simply because Chuck Jones dared to speak the truth about the con man who will soon occupy the Oval Office.
Donald Trump possess the mentality (and the hands) of a spoiled child. He is shallow, superficial, and unable to accept criticism, even if it’s constructive. He has a God complex; he can never be wrong, and should you dare to call him out, he takes it as a personal affront.
In a little more than a month, this deranged monster will have the nuclear codes. If that doesn’t give you sleepless nights, nothing will.
