Harley-Davidson is planning on cutting 180 manufacturing jobs at its plants in Milwaukee and Kansas City, Missouri, according to The Milwaukee Business Journal. The president hailed the company as a model of American manufacturing, an industry he promised to restore. He further praised Harley-Davidson executives “for building things in America” and predicted the company would expand its operations during his administration. Last month, aerospace giant Boeing said it was laying off workers at the very plant where Trump gave a speech promising to protect U.S. jobs. The president’s assurances about saving jobs at Carrier and Ford similarly fell flat after the companies announced rounds of layoffs.
