Initially.. I didn't. Now, I do. At least as it relates to the general public.

Ford is canceling plans to build a new plant in Mexico. It will invest $700 million in Michigan instead, creating 700 new U.S. jobs.
Ford (F) CEO Mark Fields said the investment is a "vote of confidence" in the pro-business environment being created by Donald Trump. However, he stressed Ford did not do any sort of special deal with the president-elect.

"We didn't cut a deal with Trump. We did it for our business," Fields told CNN's Poppy Harlow in an exclusive interview Tuesday.

The $700 million investment will go to the Flat Rock, Michigan plant to produce more electric and self-driving cars. Ford believes electric vehicles will outsell gas-powered vehicles within the next 15 years.

Ford is planning to roll out seven new electric vehicles in the next five years, including a Mustang Hybrid.

Ford executives spoke with Trump and vice-president elect Mike Pence this morning. Just hours before the Ford announcement, Trump criticized GM (GM) for producing cars in Mexico.

The union representing car workers was happy.

"I am thrilled that we have been able to secure additional UAW-Ford jobs for American workers," said Jimmy Settles, United Auto Workers vice president.

Putin probably threatened them.

The twitter comments on Kellyanne Conway's outfit are pretty hilarious.
STYLIST: Kellyanne, what kind of look do you want today?
CONWAY: Hmm... person who killed and skinned Captain America?
STYLIST: Say no more.
Why does Kellyanne Conway look like the old New England Patriots logo?
Kelly Ann Conway's keeping it colonial
Kellyanne Conway going for the "Napoleon" look I see

Trump's chief campaign strategist and is now some sort of "counselor" to him.

It's incredibly surreal to watch this and know that Donald Trump is about to be sworn in as our president.

It really is. I watched Celebrity Apprentice almost every season and it feels like its a scene from that show or something.
