Trump to crowd: After we build the wall do we let them back in? [boos, whistles and catcalls in the crowd]

Trump: Nah, don’t think so.

It seems to me that these companies are slowly finding out that the rule that you get what you pay for still applies.

I wonder when UT will follow GE’s lead and bail out of CT.

I’m surprised there’s anything left here given Malloy and the rest of his ilk’s attacks on business.

No doubt Trump paid these companies to move so they could make his point for him.

I bet Cruznadians believe this hook, line and sinker.

And when more Indio peons learn that, “Caramba! The gringos are giving their own jobs away!” they’ll be on the first train, then coyote-led caravan heading north to take what jobs are left from Americans who aren’t ready yet to live with extended family, friends and shirt-tail relatives packed into a double-wide trailer.

Trump. Now.

...2,100 workers will be out of a job, two Indiana plants have plans to move operations to Mexico.

2,100+ new Trump voters... Spread the word... we can take back our country - and make it great again.

AND make Mexico pay for the Wall...

I imagine productivity, as well as the quality of the products produced, will soon take a dramatic nosedive.

Also, make companies that outsource pay for the wall, too, If they like Mexico so much.

The Giant Sucking Sound still being heard 21 years after NAFTA passage with no end in sight. Trade deficit with Mexico has grown from nothing to $60 billion plus.

Yep, opening new markets for US products and creating US jobs as promised.

And they’re promising more of the same with TPP.

Now what was/is the pure conservative position on these issues, all you pure conservative scholars?
