    NAFTA was the single biggest impact to loss of US manufacturing. Guess what president signed it into law.

    All states with massive and powerful unions.

    No kidding.

    Check the stats on South Carolina, Texas, Georgia and others.

    It has nothing to do with Donald and everything to do with left wing labor laws and cozying up to unions.

    Only in liberal land can you implement policies that destroy economies and pretend those policies werent the cause.

    Have you been asleep,our auto unions got castrated with the auto company bailouts they received in the Obama administration,salaries and benefits per hour were cut by almost 75%.The only real viable unions today are teachers and government employee unions.

    You better go look at the numbers champ.....and who drew up NAFTA....The GOP has and still holds its blood in the majority on ALL trade deals!...Every trade deal has had majority GOP votes....Its the GOP that gave you outsourcing, and deals for American companies to continue to outsource!

    NAFTA planning began in the Reagan administration and President George H.W.Bush signed the agreement with Mexico's President and Canada's Prime Minister but it was not passed and signed into law until the Clinton administration.But manufacturing being sent from America to China began before NAFTA driven by the capitalist greed of American companies,willing to sacrifice American jobs for higher profits and CEO and executive and board of directors pay.

    Only part truth. Can we not forget the millions of greedy, short sighted ‘mum & dad’ shareholders?

    In the years when we were originally offshoring our jobs there were not a lot of Mom and Dad investors they only wound up in the market after the introduction of 401K's and similar plans.
