What's the real story here? Why did Trump say the $10B would not be spent if he was not re-elected? What "changing global market conditions" is Foxconn referring to?
Edit: I found this interview here with a former Foxconn exec that goes some more detail: https://www.theverge.com/23030465/foxconn-lcd-factory-wiscon.... Summary as far as I can tell is that the deal from the previous republican governor was controversial because of the tax breaks and the next democratic governor renegotiated the deal. Politics, basically. I guess locals are OK with this? Seems unfortunate though since people lost their homes and it would have brought jobs.
