Donald Trump is calling the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) a "disaster" and vowing to renegotiate or break the deal if elected president.
"It's a disaster," Trump told CBS's Scott Pelley in an interview airing Sunday on "60 Minutes." "We will either renegotiate it or we will break it because you know every agreement has an end.  "Every agreement has to be fair. Every agreement has a defraud claim. We're being defrauded by all these countries," Trump continued.
Pressed on whether he supports free trade, Trump responded, "We need fair trade, not free trade. We need fair trade it's got to be fair."

“You are grasping Bob. the Free Traitor lies are coming out.”
I’ve got 20,000+ posts here, please point me to one that supports what you’re saying.
I’m sorry if you REALLY THINK that costs of mining is the same in China as in US mines...but I know you don’t, rather you’re simply out of arguments.

Most mineral harvesting is not labor intensive. Even the old fashioned coal mine with picks and shovels the coal is dirt cheap. Labor is almost free even in the USA.
Tell that to the miners Obama has thrown out of work in West Virginia. Not to mention the labor involved in manufacturing the equipment they use. It all traces back to labor, and if it’s going to be US labor, we either better be ready for that cost (since we’ve had a free ride for decades) or we better be ready to lessen that cost where possible...or hopefully both.
