Donald Trump spoke today at the Carrier plant in Indianapolis, where he patted himself on the back for promising to effectively bail the company out and to punish American companies who attempt to ship jobs overseas. Why would he go out of his way to help a company like Carrier? The answer is simple:

@redsteeze @JonahNRO same thing with the flag burning. He was watching fox news when a segment on fox aired at 6:30am. Instantly tweeted.

@ComfortablySmug @JonahNRO And that's the problem. Kicks an entire constitutional policy hornets nest without even realizing it.
