Or are you simply saying he should not partner up with some of the best in the business? Dorya International furniture? Serta Mattresses (all were made in the US), Phillips Van Heusen (owns Hilfiger, CK, Speedo, Izod, Kenneth Cole, DKNY, and more big name brands), Elk Lighting (another big International group that has been around for 30+ years).
Lastly, if Trump imposes a tariff on all goods imported from China, then that means his goods that come from China will also be subject to that Tariff, so I don't see how that would "benefit" Trump.
The presidency isn't supposed to benefit Trump. That's why the Ethics Committee is on his ass about conflicts of interests with his businesses.
Effectively, what is the difference between creating jobs overseas and moving jobs overseas to the struggling, unemployed, middle Trump supporter pissed off at the lack of good jobs in the US? None. Because the jobs are overseas. I find it amusing this is your's and JustWinBaby's coup de gras to my point. Oh, those jobs were created overseas to avoid employing American workers so they are expempt from consideration. LMAO
