According to Romney in 2012: Donald Trump has shown an extraordinary ability to understand how our economy works and create jobs for the American people. He’s done it here in Nevada. He’s done it across the country. He understands that our economy is facing threats from abroad. He is one of the few people who stood up and said, “You know what? China has been cheating. They’ve taken jobs from Americans. They haven’t played fair. We have to have a president who will stand up to cheaters. We believe in free trade and free enterprise, but we don’t believe in allowing people to cheat, day in and day out.”
I spent my life in the private sector – not quite as successful as this guy [pointing to Trump]. Nonetheless, sufficiently successful to understand what it takes to get America to be the most attractive place in the world for innovators, entrepreneurs and business— and job creators…. So I want to say “thank you” to Donald Trump, and I look forward to seeing you out on the trail. Thank you, Donald.

Jobs is the major issue along with immigration, both of them linked.
10 times more serious issue than immigration is the chronic foreign trade deficits. In reality we are selling ourselves to foreigners, mainly China.
Just think, it cost $3 Billion for Ford to build a manufacturing complex in Mexico. We lose $505 Billion EVERY YEAR to China alone in trade deficits. How many factories and how much infrastructure could be built with the $800 Billion we lose EVERY YEAR?
When I say immigration, I am speaking of legal immigrants. Anything illegal has no place in in our country.
The only candidate with guts and know-how in dealing with foreign trade is Trump. Because he has actually done Billions of dollars worth all by himself.
I agree.
