If you want to know why Trump got not only got the majority of Evangelical votes in SC, but won in every demographic, here it is.
SC today has 1/3 fewer manufacturing jobs since 1994, when NAFTA—even though the states population is 25% larger.
One of the few bright spots in SC manufacturing has been automotive plants.
Ford not only announces it will build a plant in Mexico, it subsequently announces it move production from a Tennessee plant to Mexico. It’s one thing for a company to move from high-tax, high-regulation state like Michigan, but to move a plant from a southern state that (like SC) has bent over backwards to make automotive plants welcome is a shock.
Which candidates are talking hard-ball about how to deal with companies moving their manufacturing out of the country? Only Trump.
Cruz has flip-flopped on TPP, but his “I’m the true conservative” line isn’t helping him in this instance, because the “true conservative” line is free trade. Which does nothing to keep those plants in the USA.
