Trump's focus on the Ford Motor Company illustrates his ignorance about how that particular industry works. The auto manufacturing industry is in great shape in this country, and many new manufacturing plants have been built here in the U.S. since NAFTA was signed. But these plants have all been built in Southern states and are being operated by foreign manufacturers who don't hire UAW union workers. Ford is never bringing any jobs back here as long as they are tied to their UAW agreements, and Trump is delusional if he thinks otherwise.

From a purely political standpoint, Trump's biggest problem is that he's tailored his campaign to appeal to a shrinking base of Americans who actually aspire to work in factories. I know a few people whose parents worked in factories. They are all immigrants, and none of them will be voting for Donald Trump.

The car factories in Alabama and other places in the South are non union and people have good jobs. When you get the unions out of the car business its profitable here.

I think Trump knows all this. He says a lot of stuff for effect. He wants to renegotiate every trade agreement and also lower the corporate tax rate to get business back in the states. So do I. I’m sure Trump knows that Mexico rips us off because NAFTA allows it to.

He needs to refine his message.
