Don’t waste your breath. These guys are all in favor of a free market, except when it’s not in their perceived benefit.

So they would restrict companies from moving overseas to get more competitive pricing on labor and/or put limitations on imports to force Americans to purchase more costly products made here. Essentially they want to reintroduce Smoot-Halley, the single measure most responsible for turning the 1929 stock market crash into the Great Depression.

All the time they’ll be talking about how they’re opposed to government intervention in the economy without seeing the contradiction.

It is astonishing to me, and really quite discouraging to see supposed conservatives talking in such self-contradictions.
