Perot warned about NAFTA, said “we will hear a sucking sound of our jobs being shipped out of America”

You betcha. It’s insane that virtually everything in whatever store I go to has been shipped here from some other country. Material goods, even freaking drywall, are all from china, and good luck finding fruit that isn’t from South America. Giving China “Most Favored Nation” trade status FOREVER was daddy Bush’s legacy. His buddy Clinton signed it right after taking office, but it was daddy Bush’s efforts and dream that made it happen in congress. There’s a reason he and Clinton are buddies.
