Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump will not head to Milwaukee for a previously scheduled visit of a Harley-Davidson factory after the company decided it wasn't comfortable hosting him amid planned protests, an administration official said Tuesday.

Trump had been scheduled to tour the factory Thursday where he also planned to sign executive orders related to American manufacturing.

The visit had not been publicly announced, but White House staffers were already on the ground in Milwaukee setting up for Trump's planned visit to the factory on Thursday.

In all seriousness...I hope companies don't start to cave en-mass to the bullies on the Left. That would be letting the terrorists win.
 
Fuck please piss off Trump. Executive order saying people annoyed by loud Harley dipshit's exhaust can run them off the road. Please please?
 
Harley will stay. No factories planned for China. Trump doesn't need his ego stroked now.
 
Bikers scared of planned protests? Well, that's interesting.... Of course the white collar guys there probably are a little too soft for the vitriol that the protesters spew. Bummer.

How pathetic does it look that people will protest good jobs in the US?

That's a rhetorical question, the answer is obvious. VERY pathetic.

I think they were concerned over protests about Trump.

There are plenty of other venues to protest Trump.

If the anarchists show up at Harley Davidson, they're protesting jobs.

Why would people in Wisconsin protest a venue when they can protest Trump himself if given the opportunity?

And not all protesters are anarchists.

They should camp out near the White House if they want to protest Trump.

If Trump goes to Arlington National Cemetery and protesters show up that doesn't mean they're there to protest dead people. It means they're taking the opportunity to protest Trump.

It sure does matter where they protest.

I'm done being trolled. I said all there is to say.
 
Anyone who protests in a location that could affect jobs is an anarchist. Oh, but you mean the point of a protest (i.e. a boycott) is often to affect the almighty dollar so people take notice?
 
Unions who picket businesses who engage in what they deem unfair labor practices -- anarchists.
Women's March who closed down several streets affecting businesses and people's jobs -- anarchists.
People who try to peacefully sit together at a lunch counter, violating the policies of the almighty restaurant and affecting people's jobs -- anarchist.
People who disagree with SlyPokerDog -- anarchists.
People who agree with SlyPokerDog, but SlyPokerDog still wants to argue with them -- anarchists.

You do realize the optics of protesting at a jobs announcement.

But keep up with the personal insults. It only shows you have nothing else to offer.

Was this directed at me? If so, you have a weird definition of a personal insult.

Directed at me. I found it insulting.

Simply untrue, BTW.

So questioning you when you say something outrageous is trolling.

I accept your defeat.

Ok, I retract part of my statement. I don't honestly believe you think everyone is an anarchist. However, you do seem to have an insatiable appetite to argue with everyone, including those that seem to agree with you. That's my perception, whether it it's accurate or not. If you still find that insulting, I don't know what to do except to suggest that instead of being insulted, you should take it as honest criticism. What you choose to do with the feedback is your decision. Not all feedback is going to be positive. If you don't want the feedback, then fine. You do you.
