President-elect Donald Trump's speech about his deal to keep Carrier jobs in the United States was "absolutely the worst speech," economic policy analyst Jimmy Pethokoukis told CNBC on Thursday.
"The idea that American corporations are going to have to make business decisions, not based on the fact that we've created an ideal environment for economic growth in the United States, but out of fear of punitive actions based on who knows what criteria exactly from a presidential administration. I think that's absolutely chilling," he said in an interview with CNBC's "Closing Bell."
Trump boasted about his deal to keep about 1,100 Carrier jobs in Indiana, and also took aim at other companies who may be thinking about moving jobs out of the country.
"Companies are not going to leave the United States anymore without consequences. Not going to happen. It's not going to happen, I'll tell you right now," Trump said on Thursday.
"Chilling huh, Mr Pethokoukis? How is this any different from president Obama saying he's going to put coal companies out of business? Where is you rhetoric on Obama when he said that? You don't have any because your a paid government shill that cares more about a paycheck than any economic policy. If Trumps hard work before he's even president scares you may I suggest you move to North Korea"

Or perhaps Obama's regulations that have all but made small businesses obsolete...or forcing businesses to provide healthcare??

The MSM and the elitist are quite predictable with their views on anything Trump. I don't have to read them or view them, It's already a broken record. They are nothing but noise.
