I don't see how anyone who depends upon a job to support their family can vote against Trump HRC supporters are those that embrace the Nanny State.

"Those were predictions," Buchanan continued. "And now Trump walks out there and can point to the largest trade deficits any western country has ever seen, the loss of 55,000 manufacturing plants since the turn of the century, six million manufacturing jobs, every state, every community has seen a plant that is gone. All the returns are in now."

How can you vote for the exportation of 6 million jobs???????

That is the argument I have been making, really since Clinton signed NAFTA back in '94. Somehow the big picture continues to escape labor, all NAFTA does is allow Mexico to sell goods to the US at fair market, or better than fair market, while we knock a little off our bottom line to them. In other words they make money on what they sell us, and they make money on what we sell them. And incredibly, union leadership just will not recognize how many jobs have gone to Mexico. No wonder (Mexican) President Nieto was on national TV yesterday in support of NAFTA. Trump has it right, they think Americans are stupid and that point of view is hard to dispute given that we have given away the store since 1994, and we stand poised to give away anything that might be left, including our own national sovereignty, when we ratify the TPP.

But back to labor who continue to talk tough about enforcing their contracts, while they take the dues collected from rank and file and invest in candidates whose pledge is to bring in yet more millions of illegal immigrants and provide cradle to grave benefits to those who will not ironically, work. All courtesy of US tax dollars = labor pays for it.

Every union hall in the US is filled with grim faced memberships who are either laid off or under imminent threat of same. And I know there has to be a number of the older guys who remember the boom times of President Reagan. I just don't get it. In the near future when they drive past their old union hall building, closed and in decline, maybe then it will finally dawn on them that Democrats are not the saviors of labor, and the free market really did rely on the passé notion of supply and demand.

I can tell you this, I cannot and will not vote for the loss of any more jobs. Any vote cast this time around which is not for Donald J. Trump is a vote in disguise for Hillary.
