Maybe the deal from Nippon steel was good and included protections for their positions or something? Maybe the other offers were bad and would have resulted in job cuts etc.? That's all I can imagine.

The union has been against this deal and even thanked Trump for his support yesterday: https://m.usw.org/news/media-center/releases/2024/usw-welcomes-trumps-opposition-to-u-s-steel-nippon-deal
