People on this site KNOW how to bring jobs back to the US. Really? You guys would rather see an American out of job and out of money than give him or her mode of survival.
Has anyone interviewed all those companies that lost jobs to China prior to Trump when Clinton , Bush, and Obama were in the office? Has anyone asked “hey why did steel manufacturing industries closed its doors in some of the states?”
Has anyone asked why China keeps manipulating its currency. Geez I wonder why.
For to all those people that think Trump is to blame, we all are to blame! We all bought in into Chinese made products (trash) and filled our houses with them.
If a democratic president does the same as Trump you all will hail him as hero.

Holy... if you knew the story of steel manufacturing, you wouldn't even mention it. The US steel companies fucked themselves.
Steel was a very big product and the US was one of the #1 producers of it. But the US steel companies didn't innovate. In Europe, they created a new process to create steel much more efficiently at less cost. The US decided not to use it because of the extra cost in infrastructure and stayed with the old system. People were greedy and wanted to keep costs low so they can pocket the extra money. They didn't see the long term ramifications.
In a few decades, everyone in the world was making steel faster and cheaper than the USA. THEN, US steel companies decide to use the newer process.. but it was already too late. That's why US steel companies collapsed and manufacturing of it moved overseas. It's the US's fault for becoming complacent in a competitive market.
