The Shaming of Corporate America by the Twitter in Chief... To Be


Word on the Street by Seamus O’Shea.
Thank you, ladies and gentlemen!  My name is Seamus O'Shea. 

President-elect Donald Trump made this statement today via Twitter:
“Boeing is building a brand new 747 Air Force One for future presidents, but costs are out of control, more than $4 billion.   Cancel order!”   Later he added, “We want Boeing to make a lot of money but not that much money.”
Query to the street:   Do you think he has overstepped his boundaries?   What do you think?
Please answer with your first name.
The Crowd:   NOT MY PRESIDENT!
You sir.  Your first name?
Tom
Seamus:   Tom.   What do you think?
Well...It has to shock.   Someone, some government body in control has to do something besides talk about this idiot...   before he destroys everything with his tiny little twitter fingers.     After all, according to our beloved Supremes, Corporations are people and they "voted' him in with their newfound right to vote!
Seamus:   What do you think, miss?   Your first name?
Alice:    Boeing was a large donor to the Clinton campaign...   this is punishment, no doubt about it.
Seamus:   What do you think, miss?  Your first name?
Mika:   I think Washington didn't vote for him so he doesn't give a shit what happens to jobs/companies there.   He's a vengeful child.
Seamus:   What do you think, sir?
Jeffery.     I think you're exactly right, Alice.   My bet is that blue states will see contracts canceled and other delays.   If he starts doing this in California, I wouldn’t be surprised.
Seamus:   What do you think, sir?   Dan.  I think he has serious projection issues.   He melts down over sketch comedy and Broadway plays.
Seamus:   What do you think, miss?
Mary Ann.   Boeing has facilities in Kansas and South Carolina though.   It would hit them hard.   I think he just wants to continue his battle against the poor middle class.   Notice What I said?   The middle class is now so poor.   I imagine Trump just heard the price and got sticker shock.   All this for me?   No, Donald it’s for the next president... you are not going to last.
Seamus:   What do you think, sir?
Dave.   It's funny the Repugnant Party call people snowflakes, but then have epic meltdowns over just about anything.
Seamus:   What do you think, sir?
Eddy.   Happy Holidays everyone.
Seamus:   Thank you, Eddy.   What do you think, miss?
Laura.   Doesn't Boeing also have jobs in Oklahoma that would be affected?
Seamus:   What do you think, miss?
Emma.   It’s called collateral damage.   Like he gives a shit.
Seamus:   What do you think, sir?
Daniel.   He’d make his daddy proud.   But, make his mom embarrassed grabbing all them crotches.
Thank you, Daniel was it?
Seamus:   What do you think, sir?
It’s ‘miss’.   Miss Susan.
Seamus:   Sorry, Susan.
I'm not sorry.
Seamus:   What do you think, Miss Susan?
He is always set on bringing someone or some company's down that doesn't support him.   I will say you are correct, Alice.   Pay Back by the Con Man!
Seamus:   What do you think, miss?
Harriet.   What a way to run a country.
Seamus:   What do you think, sir?
Edward.   Go to hell, troll.   Tell your troll master, Putin, that you earned your rubles.   Time to pay up.
Seamus:   What do you think, sir?
Doug.   That is an understatement, Edward!
Seamus:   What do you think, sir?
Joe.   Did he even consider that it may be a bad deal?   He’s the big deal guy.   Government contracts are notorious for being bloated.   4 billion dollars for two planes seems excessive to me.   But then I never bought a 747, let alone a fleet of the most advanced jets in the world.
Seamus:   What do you think, sir?
Shannon.   He doesn't give a shit, period.   His sole purpose is to increase his own riches, regardless if the cost to everyone else.   He is a liar and a cheat and a con artist.   Everyone who voted for him should be ashamed of themselves.
Seamus:   What do you think, sir?
Doug.   That possibility certainly exists, but is this the correct way to deal with it?   With blathering tweets?   Where's his outrage and solution for the trillion dollar Zumwalt disaster?
Seamus:   What do you think, sir?
Donny Joe.   Trump is awesome.
Seamus:   Thank you, sir.   What do you think, sir?
Samuel.   I agree with you Emma, I think that’s her name.   She looks awesome.   Yeah.   Trump has lived a life on making fast easy money by lying, conning and misleading people and when his bets went wrong his filing for Bankruptcy protection to protect his assets.   Now Trump will have the Federal Treasury at his disposal and the American people will suffer tremendously by the mismanagement of the executive branch.
Seamus:   What do you think, miss?
Linda.   We don't actually know that Washington did not vote for him.   What happens in the ballot box is private.   I think many who were for him were afraid to say it out loud for fear of losing some votes.   Maybe when we see how Congress acts, we get some insight into how they voted.
Seamus:   What do you think, sir?
Jodie.    Boeing is in Washington State, and Washington State most definitely did not vote for him.   Pay back!
Seamus:   What do you think, miss?
Willow.   Boeing has received plenty of State-funded welfare from the State of Washington which has done no good.   They are going to do another big layoff soon and have moved production both out of the country and to other states in order to bust their Unions.
Seamus:   What do you think, sir?
Turner.   You don’t know that, Willow.   More fake news.   We want Trump to make money, but not that much money.   So make him pay taxes.   BTW where are those tax returns that he promised if elected?
Seamus:   What do you think, miss?
Jane.   Brian Grogan is correct.   I'm a proud Washingtonian (home of Boeing) and we went for Hillary all the way.   No room for hate in our state.
Seamus:   What do you think, miss?
Jessica.   The tweet certainly got people’s attention.   Definitely got their attention.   They responded almost immediately.   I agree.   There needs to be... Yeah...   There needs to be some accountability somewhere for that one.
Seamus:   What do you think, sir?
Harry.   I'm not sure where Boeing planned on manufacturing this plane, as they do have plants in other states.   But ultimately I thought the same thing as Emma when I heard about the Boeing deal.
Thank you, ladies and gentlemen, for taking time out of your busy day to respond to our "Query to the street.
The Crowd:  NOT MY PRESIDENT!
