Today, President Trump's Administration is showcasing companies and products from around the country at the White House to kick off Made in America week. All 50 states will be represented at the White House, and President Trump will deliver a message reaffirming his support for the American worker.
Bttt
I dont know....
Is this racists????? Sexist??? Trans-islamaphobic????
Help me, CNN!
Hypocritical. The media started last week by running stories on how nothing that Ivanka sells is made in the U.S. Expect them to continue with Trump's clothing line. The media will focus on that rather than on his message.
Trump.
This is a good way to start. But we need real pro-American policies.
Not to say, that PR isn’t great. It is. But our economy is BADLY hurt by globalization. Everyone else on the entire planet, has made taking AMERICAN industry, and bringing it to their country as an export there, importing (everything, basically) back to America.
This has been going on, and getting worse, for more than one entire generation now. Worse every single year.
Worse, and worse, and worse. Companies. No, entire industries, sent overseas. Always going overseas. Never, ever coming this way.
You made American industry a campaign focus.
I believed you. In fact, millions of Americans believed you. We voted for you, and made you president, largely on this issue. This, and immigration control.
You seemed to be one of the only politicians in America, paying attention to this issue.
Democrats. Republicans. Independents. Everyone has been selling out America now for more than one full generation.
Bring back industries, to America.
PR is good. But we need real industrial, real pro-American policies, to encourage re-migration of businesses to America.
Not just PR.
Good start. I am all for this. But Trump, we need to change policies about global trade, to bring back our own industries.
That said, good start.
Democrats Outraged
For them, the President's slogan must be accompanied by a robust effort on his and the Congress's part to reduce the regulatory and union demands on American manufacturers so that such American-made products can be bought by those mothers at a price competitive to the foreign products.
Unless that happens, those mothers will continue to buy foreign products, despite their desire to support the President, because of their children's needs.
What regulatory restrictions need to be repealed to compete with a workers wage of a dollar or two a day? Never mind Unions. This is a wage issue and a wage issue alone. How low do you propose U.S. wages go in order to compete with that?
Oh I do hope some of Texas Mesquite products will be shown. Either their doors, furniture, a pinto horse made of mesquite and some other white (either ash or hackberry, both “trash woods, but beautiful) The horse stood about 6 hands. Lamps you name it, these artisic hard working entepreneurs have turned the bane to the cowboys into some beautiful articles.
Maybe even some mesquite candy or jelly??
Hello Guenevere, how is King Arthur?
Maybe the young mother needs a job?
Benedict Arnold has nothing on the modern day Free Traitor™.
Low-wage countries are also low-productivity countries. That low productivity offsets much of the wage gap, between 1st and 3rd-world economies. This (moving jobs back to America) is a lot more doable than you may realize.
Stop whining and follow the activity of the various Departments more closely. You’s be surprised at how much them have accomplished.
Free traitors have the communists beat. Lenin said the capitalists would sell him the rope he would hang them with, but the free traitors have conned us into paying for the rope.
