    Yes because he's all about helping American workers.

    What possible specific question could I possibly ask about incoherent gibberish? That is the whole point of my OP. No one knows specifically what he is talking about? He doesn't make any sense.

    If you are incapable of understanding that the data comes from a government source which I linked to then I linked to the post where I linked to it and quoted the source there isn't much I can do for you.

    The link you provided lacked any information on the number of jobs lost. It was just a hack opinion piece that painted a rosy picture without any substance.

    Right because Americans are going to be lined up for those piecework clothing manufacturing jobs aren't they. Welcome to 1930, Trump edition.

    now THAT's funny. Clinton hasn't gone into bankruptcy court many times, switched parties from democrat to republican several times, been in court for raping a 13 year old, been sued for fleecing people in a bogus online university... the list goes on. Trump is drowning in scandel and corruption.

    In fact, i'm not aware that Clinton has been found guilty of ANY crime. Her HUSBAND had an affair with an adult (not a 13 year old), which is hardly any of our business.

    Trump is much more corrupt than Clinton.

    So, like, do you have anything to say about what I have posted about free trade with oppressive regimes, whose ethics our nation has rejected, resulting in fewer jobs and lower wages for ordinary Americans and massively benefiting the extremely wealthy and political establishment who thrive on their donations? Because that is what Trump's economic speech was about.

    I think you are missing a few prerequisites for this discussion if that sounds like gibberish to you. There are probably plenty of well reasoned counter arguments to Trump's perspective. But this thread is not about those. It is about how you don't understand the material well enough to even present a counter argument, and I'm not sure how appearing to confirm the stereotype of the economically illiterate American liberal hurts Trump at all.

    Go back and read your genius post. You said that Republicans are voting because of the (R). Your politically biased comment blew up in your face when I showed you the facts. Nice try (lol)

    I was correct. There are many people that will vote for Trump because of that reason. There will also be many people who vote for Clinton because she's a democrat. That wasn't the topic though. The topic was Donald Trump and why people would vote for him. Not sure why this is hard for you to understand. It makes no sense to criticize me for staying on topic and not changing the subject. There was absolutely no reason for me to discuss democrats at all when discussing the topic of the thread. Your point was that democrats would do the same. You seem feel you proved me wrong about a point I didn't even make. I never claimed democrats wouldn't do the same thing. You are acting as if I did. Your point is true, it just didn't have anything to do the topic we were discussing. Feel free to make a thread about the reasons people will vote for Clinton though if you want.

    "UH, NO"! What you have to say about free trade is not relevant to this thread. What Donald Trump is saying is what we are questioning in this thread. What, are you a spokesman for Trump now, that he needs someone to translate what he is saying for him? Lol! I think he has enough of those folks already. And they don't even have a clue of what Trump is talking about, evidenced by his spokeswoman trying to explain Trump's Muslim ban, which she failed miserably in doing; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCg7WvW0-Gk No one knew what she was talking about either. What a joke.
    It was? Really? Telling us he'll do all kinds of deals, tells us that? Telling us whether they are good deals or bad deals and that he doesn't care one way or the other, tells us what Trump's economic speech was about? Dude, you're as bad as Trump and his spokeswoman.

    "Probably plenty of well reasoned counter arguments"? And that would be exactly?
    We'll, until Trump gets a handle on how to create coherent economic message that people including his supporters understand, you're right, I don't understand Trump's material. And, I have yet to have anyone who can explain it. And you, telling us your own free trade economic forecast is just a cop out to explain Trumps.

    No one will be able to explain economics to an idiot. It is an academic subject which requires sophisticated cognitive abilities. Again, it isn't like the issue of gay marriage, where any idiot can determine if they hate gays or not.

    If you don't understand it, you should not vote. But that would require integrity, which you may lack as well.

    If I knew any well reasoned arguments to support free trade with oppressive regimes who abuse their labor populations, I would post them for you, out of pity. But I don't know any, because the people who oppose Trump never post any, and I can't think of any. If I could, I would not be supporting Trump.

    Free trade is not the outcome of our current trade deals, but tarriffs are not the answer. I have yet to read a lucent argument for looser borders when all costs are considered. I agree that looser borders are the answer if those born to noncitizens were not eligible for welfare.

    I'll take this one...
    What Trump means is China, Japan, Mexico among others are eating our lunch on trade. Devaluing their currency every time we get a head wind. Selling us their stuff but not buying ours, what little we have left to sell. You don't need a degree from Wharton to understand this but you do have to take the partisan blinders off.

    I have a question for the thread starter, why don't you share with us Hillary's economic plan? But please not while I have water in my mouth.

    Yea, well it takes one to know one right? After that gibberish nonsense of an economic speech no one understood, it would take another idiot to explain it. For only an idiot would attempt such a thing.
    "Academic subject"? Lol! So what's Trump doing up there sounding like a fourth grader if we are dealing with an academic subject?

    Look chief, we all realize all you have left are personal attacks in that bag of tricks of yours. My advise would be for you and the Republican party to gather some of your home boys and school Trump on how to make coherent speeches next time, beyond fourth grade level. Because, come November, energy spent taking Trumps Fourth grade level education and blaming the Left for it, is hardly going to get your fourth grader elected president.

    Not to worry! If you had any idea of what Trump's economic plan was, you would have stayed on topic, instead of retreating to the off topic Hillary question?

    How about you give your opinion on trade, so that we can all see what a post 4th grade position on trade is supposed to look like.

    I think that you have never taken one single economics class in your life and that your attempt to talk about trade, or refusal to do so, will expose that. And that's why it sounds like gibberish to you.
