I guess I’m still getting hung up on the construction of your question rather than zeroing in on your point.

I don’t think you’re going to find a soul here advocating for Ford to build anything in Mexico or that them doing so will be beneficial for America.

The difference of opinion comes down to what you think is the best way to going about keeping and increasing business dollars and jobs at home and what level and what type of influence the POTUS should have on that.

I know from reading your comments that you’re a big protectionist. Without even getting into the positives and negatives of that, I think it’s clear that in 2015 we’re probably not going to back to that and I think it’s also clear that Donald Trump is not a pure protectionist in every sense himself.

And I think that indeed, as we’ve already “entangled ourselves”, perhaps more than we ever should have, but we have nonetheless, going too far in that direction could be quite negative anyway.

The country was founded on the idea of protectionism and the very first law ever passed was the Tariff Act.
