I am not a free trader and never have been, going back to opposing NAFTA.
I was just pointing out the nonsense from the Military Industrial complex that they are “opposing China”, when China is their supply chain.
The reason why it is so hard to rebuild the supply chain in the USa is that when the factories shut down and moved offshore, the companies that make tools for the factories also shut down.
That’s why the new ammunition factory in Texas has production equipment made by Repkon in Turkey.
