I will buy a car made in Mexico before I buy any car that was made by the United Auto Workers. Last time I checked Hondas were being made in Ohio and Toyotas were being made in Kentucky....by non union workers.

Versus, oooo I dunno, 20 to 40 mentions in speeches, some as recent as last night, that he’s killing common core?

The thread about that Redstate POS hit piece on this topic was locked by JR himself. A mistake is a mistake — if that’s even what it was! The author himself of the hit piece was starting to walk it back when contacted by the campaign, that he might have been quoting Jeb who earnestly DOES want to keep it.

Trump only had one hour sleep in two days, but he said he would end common Core several times before he mispoke.

Typical Cruz loser, snipping the audio and ignoring the correct part where there was no ambiguity Trump has only been saying We will end common core for 6 months.

Pathetic liars, failed try.

In 1990 the Bush family said the way to stop illegal immigration was to pass NAFTA.

It is 2016.

“Trump was right about everything”

But, he is not a pure conservative ideologue, probably cannot quote the last 200 years of conservative theory since he has been in the real world building and running a large empire fighting regulations put out by liberal fools, so Rush has no use for him.

Now, if only he would take the time to memorize a few talking points.....

You Trump-ettes are getting more and more like liberals. One of the first signs of liberal derangement syndrome is you lose your sense of humor. Come on, Trump is very gregarious in the way he describes things, especially the things he promises to do.

Lighten up, Francis.

If what I have read, the factory will be building Focus, while the factory in Michigan that will 'close', will be fitted to build the new Ford Ranger small pick up...

Not sure if that is true, thou...

I used to by Fords, and loyally so.

That ended a few years ago, and now, I choose to not by from any UAW company.

That said, even if I were disposed to buy a Ford product, the not-made-in-America fact would be enough to force an alternative product.

It is not the wages it is the work rules the unions have gotten

It is neither. It is NAFTA and the other FTA's that made it profitable for Ford and everyone else to outsource manufacturing. Ford makes plenty profit off of vehicles produced in the US. They just make more if they do it in Mexico now that goods coming in from there are no longer tariffed at a reasonable rate.

Nothing more than blind greed and vindictiveness at work.

Ross Perot said: “You hear that big sucking sound? That’s NAFTA taking away your jobs, they are going to be going south” Clinton passed NAFTA, do you hear that big sucking sound? That’s our jobs being taken out of this country....

Ford had it’s chance to deal with the union in 2006 and they folded.

I don’t buy UAW built vehicles any longer.

——making domestic production just that much more cost-prohibitive-—

but the isolationists don’t believe that

they don’t believe that Americans have greedily abandoned their own jobs

maybe they will pay attention

Ford will now have a global export capability it lost by building cars in the USA

Trump? That NY huckster? With his “NY values”? He’s the biggest, sleaziest scumbag this side of the Atlantic Ocean.

Supporting him = the death of the USA.

(Do I have to write “/s?)

Once again, Trump’s right.

This is a YUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEEEEE deal here.

What does St. Rafael say about this?

The factory will close. The refit to Ford Ranger will be in the planning stages...forever.

I wasn't at the speech and didn't see the thread until after the post...but the guy has been on both sides of every issue, so its getting harder to keep track of where he is on any issue.

Huge profits is not a reason to stay when even larger profits can be had.

The larger profits are only available because we let people and companies sell into our markets with extremely low and often non-existent import tariffs.

It’s time to restore the import tariffs. And make it profitable to produce in America again.
