ANYTHING to promote Trump regardless of facts.
I can't refute that, Apple didn't specifically say that the 20,000 new jobs were only because of the tax overhaul. But the jobs, I believe, were included in the same announcement as bringing back 250B in cash, and paying a tax of 38B. We do know, those moves are a result of the tax overhaul.

Apple also gave $2,500 bonuses to most of it's 85,000 employees. But let's not talk about that.

I am sorry that the economy is doing so well, Paul. It must eat at you and Spence.
