Democrats take a dig at Foxconn deal supported by Trump at DNC

CHICAGO — A video played at the Democratic National Convention before former President Bill Clinton’s speech took a dig at the unfulfilled promises of the Foxconn deal championed by former President Donald Trump.

“Donald Trump talked a big game about bringing jobs back to America. But it was all talk, like Foxconn,” an ironworker narrating the clip says. “Trump talked a massive game about infrastructure. What a joke.”

When the Foxconn Technology Group project was pitched in 2017, it was sold as creating up to 13,000 jobs. The Racine County site is about 70 miles north of Chicago, where the convention is being held, and about 30 miles south of Milwaukee.
