Left Wing Governor Of Washington State Freaks Out As Boeing Moves Production To South Carolina

2020-10-04

[AMERICANLOOKOUT] Jay Inslee

...Governor of Washington state, failed candidate for the 2020 Dem presidential campaign, mainly because nobody outside the state and some inside had ever heard of him. He complained, complained, complained that the Trump administration wasn't doing enough to help the state, then returned an Army field hospital and 400 ventilators that didn't get used...
, the left wing governor of Washington State, is freaking out because Boeing has decided to move production of its 787 airplane to the more conservative and business friendly South Carolina.

Who can blame Boeing for making such a move, especially if it benefits them financially?

Besides, in Seattle, leaders have shown that they will allow mobs of left wingers to destroy businesses.

#17 As I recall, the recent airworthyness/ stop order that was called on the new Boeing airtankers specified "from the South Carolina facility".
So things are not all sunshine and roses there.
(Lotsa FOD items in fuel tanks, general sloppiness.)

#13 I would love to see 3M pull out of Minnesota, too.

#12 Move one 737 assembly line bay to SC in a newly constructed building. Strip out one bay in Renton. As things pick up in the 737 production line build the second bay in SC strip the guts out of Renton remaining line and pull the plug out of WA. QED.

#11 They're counting on a Harris/Biden win to bail them out.

The fraud this year will out of this world.

#8 I applaud the move out of Washington state, but Boeing execs should still hang due to how they dealt with the 737 Max...FAA pukes, too.

#7 Or re-tool them to make ventilators for COVID patients. Remember that brilliant idea? Anyone? Bueller?

#6 Here's Seattle Commie Councilcritter Sawant seven years ago, threatening expropriation of the Boeing plant:

Now Boeing is threatening to take those jobs to other states. “That will be nothing short of economic terrorism because it's going to devastate the state's economy,” she said.
Sawant is calling for machinists to literally take-possession of the Everett airplane-building factory, if Boeing moves out. She calls that "democratic ownership."
“We can re-tool the machines to produce mass transit like buses, instead of destructive, you know, war machines."

#5 Indeed, you are beyond an idiot, but that is the best psych label we have.

#4 Which leaves one big program left in Seattle - The 737-Max... Think about that Jay Inslee.

#3 All she had to do was pay attention. Too difficult it would appear.

#2 I believe that the South Carolina plant is not unionized as well.

#1 When Boeing moves it's corporate HQ out of Chiraq I'll maybe pay attention.
