I know a poster mentioned it but I feel it's important to repeat it. Not every good businessman does something to maximize profits. Quite the opposite. As pointed out by that poster there are businesses that make the decision to buy american and produce in the US. It's not because it is the cheapest way to do things or the only way to do things. It's because they feel it is the right thing to do. And that is the problem. Trump lives his life purely to maximize profits NOT because it is the "right" thing to do. And unlike Trump a country is NOT a business and can not be run as such.

And that ignores the whole he doesn't actually have properly presented policy on anything. At least nothing that stays consistent. His argument is simply "trust me". Well as much as it is political suicide it needs to be said at some point that the workforce is becoming more and more educated and the employment market and what the US is known for has to change with it. There will always be a place for factories but it can't be a purely blue collar workforce anymore because it's not.
