No it’s not a “zero-sum” game. The evidence of what I said is all around. A tremendous increase in standard of living. Cheap consumer goods, cheap travel, explosion in computers, tv, cable, phones, cars. We’ve gone through life-changing booms in standard of living just since the ‘80s, when all these “trade deals” were supposedly supposed to be killing us. I see NO evidence of that.

People working to create things creates this abundance. An economy has one purpose, and that is to motivate people to produce. Life gets better for all of us as innovation after innovation compounds on top of each other. There is no “zero-sum,” there is constant improvement for everybody engaged in capitalism and free trade.

I see NO evidence of that.

That would be the support for Donald Trump. Checkmate.
