We are currently sending far, far too much “American” production to China.

Last year we imported from Chinese manufacturing, 440 billion dollars worth of goods.

During the same year, we only exported 122 billion dollars of American production back to China.

That is a trade deficit, just between two countries, of nearly 318 billion dollars, in just one year.

REPEATED, EVERY SINGLE YEAR.

America is running MASSIVE trade deficits. We are 17.6 trillion in debt. That debt clims every single day. Yet we continue to buy foreign-made goods in virtually unlimited supply.

Both parties have sold out America.

Both parties are to blame.

We need to bring back jobs, to America.

Why is that happening? And who are the "We" you are talking about?

We need to bring back jobs, to America.

We need solutions, not meaningless slogans.
