“The Republican Party gave their jobs away!”

That is utter tripe.
Republicans don't “give jobs away”. International competition, cheaper products from more competitive countries, the inability of some US firms to adapt, insane demands from unions, have ended up giving American jobs away.

And electing Obama. Don’t forget that.

Certainly isn't tripe...That's what Buchanan's talking about...Reagan put a tariff on the cheaper foreign competition so Ameirican manufacturing stayed in America...

Americans can't compete with companies in China and Indonesia unless you want to live like the Chinese and Indonesians...How can you not know that???
