I think most left wing people miss the point in order to protect Obama. Wages have not increased for the past 7.5 years. I don't give a damn if good paying jobs are in manufacturing or in the service industry. What I do care about are good paying jobs, supported by a healthy growing economy. (IOW, no Minimum Wage Increase!) We have had neither an increase in good paying jobs (on average) nor a healthy 3% economic growth under Obama.

People are attacking Trump because of his jobs language/tariff talk. If you look at his tax reform, and if the his business tax proposals do pass, that will motivate companies to remain in the US and tariffs would therefore would not be proposed.

Now for Trump's trade deals, I have no clue what would happen. For me personally, I do not trust the Yahoos in DC to negotiate a deal that would be “fair” not to mention “free” (humor) to the people of the US? Why, because Obama is a rabid radical ideologue and he has placed many rabid left wingers in the government.

Honestly, me neither.  Frankly my bet is that Trump doesn't either.  What I do expect (imho) is that the next administration's policies will be a 'yuge' change for the better.
