[C. Edmund Wright]

You didn’t address fencing Ford in at all?

Trump and Reagan are not sympatico on trade. That doesn’t mean they won’t reach a same conclusion every now and again, but in theory, they’re very different.

Having not been in politics before, Trump's views on trade issues have not been fully revealed and in fact he may not even have fully formed those views yet . There's plenty of time before the voting begins, so I can support what he says and does without deciding whether to vote or not vote for him.

As for "fencing a company in by the jack booted force of gummint," what Trump said to Ford was that he'd slap a tax/tariff on every car/truck made in that factory moved to Mexico. So as to whether I can"imagine Reagan" doing that, in fact (as my prior resposnse pointed out) that's exactly what Reagan did to imported motorcycle.

And a flim·flam reply that Reagan did it to Japanese made motorcycles and Ford is an American company would be laughable when speaking about another globalist corporation with zero loyalty to America and Americans.
