BREAKING: Donald Trump Tweets 'Big Announcement' By Ford To Bring Michigan Jobs

(WWJ) Ford is again the focus of an early morning, exclamation point filled tweet, with plenty of caps, from President Donald Trump.

The investments are reportedly significant, but there are no details forthcoming from Ford and no information on how many jobs might be created, according to WWJ's auto reporter Jeff Gilbert.

The Detroit News says one investment will come at Michigan Assembly, which will build the Bronco and Ranger.

The Detroit News got the scoop on the situation, even before Trump's Tweet, writing in today's newspaper that:
