    Considering Trump didn't do anything for the economy yet, he can't be credited with those numbers (though a president doing nothing about the economy can be a good thing- they get more credit and blame than they deserve for what it does).

    Yes he has. Lots of companies have already said point blank they are bringing jobs back to the US because of Trump.

    And furthermore, he has done something for the economy.

    Most of them also said they were planning the move long ago. http://www.factcheck.org/2017/01/tru...because-of-me/

    Several auto industry experts we spoke to said the announcements by GM and Ford were in the works before Trump was elected, and were largely market-driven decisions that fit a years long trend in the industry. Indeed, car companies have been announcing such deals — many of them bigger — for years. As for Lockheed Martin, the jobs aren’t “coming back,” they are being added as part of a larger contract for more F-35 planes.
    Host Neil Cavuto asked if any of the decisions were based on Trump’s criticisms during the campaign.

    “Well, we’re doing this based on what’s right for our business,” Fields said. Fields added that Ford is anticipating “more positive U.S. manufacturing business environment under Trump,” and he said the company welcomes some of the “pro-growth policies” such as regulation and business tax reform that Trump talked about during the campaign. Fields said Ford’s announcement was a “vote of confidence” that he’ll deliver on these things.

    Fields noted that the 700 new jobs were in addition to the 28,000 the company has added over the last five years. The company has also invested $12 billion in U.S. plants over the same period.

    “Would you have done this [the moves announced] if Donald Trump were not elected president?” Cavuto asked.
    “Yes, absolutely,” Fields said
    .
    But GM leaders stressed that the investments in the U.S. were part of a longtime trend. The company noted that it has announced investments of $2.9 billion in the U.S. in 2016 — and more than $21 billion since 2009.

    Services led the way with 193,000 new jobs, with 66,000 coming from professional and business services. Health care added 38,000 while information-related jobs came to 25,000.

    Job creation was fairly evenly distributed across business size. Companies with 50 to 499 employees added the most with 122,000, while small firms added 104,000 and large contributed 72,000.

    Trump did far more to help protect US jobs before he even took office than Obama did during his 8 years.

    How Donald Trump Bankrupted His Atlantic City Casinos, but Still Earned Millions


    ATLANTIC CITY — The Trump Plaza Casino and Hotel is now closed, its windows clouded over by sea salt. Only a faint outline of the gold letters spelling out T-R-U-M-P remains visible on the exterior of what was once this city’s premier casino.

    Not far away, the long-failing Trump Marina Hotel Casino was sold at a major loss five years ago and is now known as the Golden Nugget.

    At the nearly deserted eastern end of the boardwalk, the Trump Taj Mahal, now under new ownership, is all that remains of the casino empire Donald J. Trump assembled here more than a quarter-century ago. Years of neglect show: The carpets are frayed and dust-coated chandeliers dangle above the few customers there to play the penny slot machines.

    On the presidential campaign trail, Mr. Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee, often boasts of his success in Atlantic City, of how he outwitted the Wall Street firms that financed his casinos and rode the value of his name to riches. A central argument of his candidacy is that he would bring the same business prowess to the Oval Office, doing for America what he did for his companies.

    “Atlantic City fueled a lot of growth for me,” Mr. Trump said in an interview in May, summing up his 25-year history here. “The money I took out of there was incredible.”

    His audacious personality and opulent properties brought attention — and countless players — to Atlantic City as it sought to overtake Las Vegas as the country’s gambling capital. But a close examination of regulatory reviews, court records and security filings by The New York Times leaves little doubt that Mr. Trump’s casino business was a protracted failure. Though he now says his casinos were overtaken by the same tidal wave that eventually slammed this seaside city’s gambling industry, in reality he was failing in Atlantic City long before Atlantic City itself was failing.

    But even as his companies did poorly, Mr. Trump did well. He put up little of his own money, shifted personal debts to the casinos and collected millions of dollars in salary, bonuses and other payments. The burden of his failures fell on investors and others who had bet on his business acumen.
    His contractors didn't do well either.

    Many others were glad to see him go.

    He put a number of local contractors and suppliers out of business when he didn’t pay them,” said Steven P. Perskie, who was New Jersey’s top casino regulator in the early 1990s. “So when he left Atlantic City, it wasn’t, ‘Sorry to see you go.’ It was, ‘How fast can you get the hell out of here?’”
    But it was just the economy, right?

    In reality, the revenue at Mr. Trump’s casinos had consistently lagged behind their competitors’ for a decade before larger forces ravaged the industry. Beginning in 1997, his share of the Atlantic City gambling market began to slip from its peak of 30 percent.

    Revenues at other Atlantic City casinos rose 18 percent from 1997 through 2002; Mr. Trump’s fell by 1 percent.
    He still received $2 million a year under a “services agreement,” which included the use of his name.
    In 2014, the casino company filed for bankruptcy protection for the fifth time. The chief executive cited the debt level after the 2009 bankruptcy as the primary reason.

    For a time, Mr. Trump lent a glamorous sheen to the faded resort city. But some of his former investors no longer see the value.

    People underestimated Donald Trump’s ability to pillage the company,” said Sebastian Pignatello, a private investor who at one time held stock in the Trump casinos worth more than $500,000. “He drove these companies into bankruptcy by his mismanagement, the debt and his pillaging.

    but Still Earned Millions
    oooh, millions?

    Big deal.

    Trump had over 300 companies. Trump has billions. He has tons of operations, most go well, some fail.

    Yet you and your toadies focus on the molehill of failures, and ignore the mountains of success.

    Haters.

    Most of those pretty buildings with his name on them? He no longer owns them. Some of them he still owns. He gets most of his money these days by licensing his name.

    https://www.fool.com/investing/2016/...t-does-he.aspx

    Donald Trump's Name is Everywhere -- But What Does He Actually Own?

    President-elect Donald Trump likes to put his name on things.

    The Trump brand has appeared on everything from steaks to vodka, hotels, golf courses, residential buildings, his ill-fated university, casinos, and a whole lot more. But, just because a product or building carries the Trump brand does not mean that the soon-to-be-leader-of-the-free-world actually owns it.

    In fact, much of Trump's fortune comes not from properties he owns, but from licensing his name. That's a lucrative business where he gets paid even if the product/building/golf course, or whatever else his name might be attached to fails.

    Licensing actually makes up the biggest single source of revenue for the president elect's company. Trump has always been a bit elusive in showing people what he's actually worth but in 2014 he claimed "real estate licensing deal, brand and branded developments" were worth more than $3.3 billion, of the $8.7 billion in total net worth he stated he had at the time -- though many people dispute those numbers.

    What we do know is that Trump makes money through licensing his name as well as through owning a variety of things. These are some of the higher profile Trump holdings:
    The Trump brand
    Trump's biggest singular asset is his name. The president-elect may have damaged that with some of the public due to the presidential campaign, but an exhaustive examination of his licensing deals by The Real Deal in 2013 found that his brand was worth $4 billion -- more than Trump would claim a year later, but less than he claims now

    These deals include some of the aforementioned products as well as many of the hotel/condominium projects bearing his name. These include the Trump Soho, various other properties in New York, The Trump Ocean Club International Hotel and Tower in Panama City, the upcoming Trump International Hotel in Vancouver, Trump International Golf Club, Dubai, and numerous other properties.

    You're not blowin' my mind, man.
    I already knew all this.
    Why do you keep thinking you are the one teaching me, student?
    Who do you think you are? You are a low pay grade nothing. Who do you think you are talking to?

    Yeah, Trump only owns things when a scandal is attached. If not, then its just his name being licensed out. I figured out that a long time ago from your buddies at fake news.

    NPR did their 10-second blurb on new jobs a day or so ago, could've sworn the person said it was due to the warmer than average temperatures that helped the numbers.

    He could have raised consumer confidence without pass any laws. Maybe businesses are just more optimistic now than when Obama was in Office and have now decided to go on a hiring spree to prepare for the wave in new customers.
