I doubt he'll follow through.  His clothing line is in China.

I am in a minority on the shroomery, as I frequently defend the opposing side when they have a point about something or when my side make believes something about them.  I also attack my side if I think they're wrong.  People here get very confused by that and think it means I prefer the other side.

That video came out 4 years ago, and at the end, David Letterman said "Let's just shut down the Donald Trump Factory in Beijing" to which Trump responded "I would love to".

It never happened.  Trump is just a talker.

It's wrong that things are so much cheaper to make over there than here. When he talks about rugs and curtains for his hotels, it's the same, he'd love to buy them here but because of bad govt policy, he can't. THAT'S what he wants to fix

With libs always claiming to support the middle class, you would think they would support reviving the manufacturing sector. ( insert crazy strawman shit here )



So you want to help the middle class by eliminating laws that guarantee them decent working conditions and a minimum wage?  Making the middle class poorer isn't helping them.

Actually, your own interpretation of what you wrote is completely retarded.

How can the US manufacture things cheaper than China can, if not by eliminating decent working conditions or wages?  :popcorn:

If you say by eliminating Government regulations, please provide a specific example.

It's always sweat shops and slave labor with you, isn't it?



If you can come up with other valid reasons why China is cheaper, please share.

How about reducing the burden of taxation on a business? That would certainly help, would it not?



No, because a foreign corporation engaged in a US trade or business is taxed at regular US corporate tax rates on income from US sources.  Additionally, many Chinese goods are subject to import duties (which may go away if we implement TPP).

So no, taxation is not a factor.  Once again, how can Trump manufacture things cheaper in the US, if not by eliminating decent working conditions or wages?

It's called tariffs, the US doesn't have to "manufacture things cheaper" than China, just cheaper after a 35-40% tariff!!



Exactly.
