Yes, and Trump is taking credit for the jobs created as the result of an Exxon Mobil facility that was opened FOUR YEARS AGO.

White House Lifts Several Sentences From Exxon Mobil Press Release

The copied lines appeared Monday in an unusual congratulatory statement from Trump to the energy corporation.
By Christina Wilkie 03/06/2017 06:00 pm ET

The White House on Monday released a statement from President Donald Trump, congratulating the multinational oil conglomerate Exxon Mobil Corp. Included in the formal language of the White House release were several sentences taken directly from an Exxon Mobil corporate press release issued earlier that day.

The White House did not attribute the language to Exxon Mobil, and a spokeswoman did not respond to questions from The Huffington Post about the copied lines. But the duplicated text underscores how tightly the Trump administration is intertwined with many of America’s largest corporations, and with Exxon in particular.

The president has made fossil fuels a cornerstone of his economic growth policy, and his newly confirmed secretary of state, Rex Tillerson, was until January the chairman and CEO of Exxon.

Below is the White House’s statement released at 3:45 p.m. EST, with relevant paragraphs highlighted.
