Donald Trump tweeted that GM, Ford, Lockheed Martin and others announced investments and job creation in the U.S. “because of me!” But industry experts and company officials say the recent moves were largely market-driven and were in the works before Trump was elected.

Something's not right here. Obama said those jobs were never coming back.

They haven’t. The jobs that left are still in China and Mexico. These jobs are homegrown naturally due to a healthy economy. Let’s hope these jobs stay

Liberals are going to be angry about this.

What I talking about Willis. I’m extatic about it.

But that's not just because of Trump. Lots of factors have contributed to the comeback in manufacturing.

The president gets credit for boosting overall business optimism and consumer confidence, although both had been rising for years before he took office. But a weaker dollar, which makes it easier for American companies to sell products abroad, and an ever-stronger global economy have also helped factories grow.

Manufacturing has benefited this year from a weaker U.S. dollar. The industry depends heavily on exporting its products -- from pipes to pickup trucks. When the dollar's value is high, as it was in 2015, when manufacturing was in a recession, U.S. exports are more expensive and less attractive to foreign buyers.

The dollar is down about 9% compared with the world's most traded currencies this year, according to the ICE dollar index. At the same time, the global economy is on pace to post its best year of growth since 2011, according to the IMF.

Another factor: The U.S. economy is performing well. Unemployment is 4.1%, its lowest since 2000. The economy has added jobs for 85 consecutive months, the longest streak in recorded U.S. history. A healthy economy increases demand for manufactured goods in America, from cars to solar panels.

"But that's not JUST because of Trump..."

The article itself implies that Trump has helped.

Yeah. It told what he has helped with. Why you laughing?
