"Ford says the job cuts eliminate bureaucracy and increase the number of workers reporting to each manager"
So yeah..."Make America Great Again" doesn't mean making Ford jobs in other countries "great". Matter of fact, the tax cuts are designed to bring jobs BACK to the U.S.
Also...you should be happy. All the major car manufacturers are restructuring to begin a massive push to electric cars.
That's going to require layoffs and plant closings at current factory's. Then the rebuilding and retooling of those factories (which means JOBS). And then finally the re-opening and re-hiring of the factories to make electric cars.
Think it through.
The economy is roaring. It's the perfect time to make these moves and spend the money needed to move from gas cars to electric cars.

Holy shit. You just want to spin everything don't you.
"Ford faces pressure to improve its profitability. Its profit margin has lagged those of some competitors. It has announced the costs of commodities it buys, such as steel and aluminum, have increased about $1 billion annually after tariffs were imposed on those products."
Trump's trade war is causing America's second largest car company to cut 10% of it's workforce. This comes after GM announced last November they are cutting 15% of their staff.

Again, you show you know nothing about business. You see Ford as an American company without giving any consideration to what Ford actually does. They build cars all across the world - Turkey, Russia, China, Taiwan, Thailand.... In order for a US Car company to stay in business they have to do business world wide...
If the tax cuts worked... Why are they cutting jobs?
