Never mind the NAFTA treaty, right?

Well let's talk about that.

How well has NAFTA worked out?

It's been great for Mexico, they're expanding like crazy.

Meanwhile the manufacturing base in the US and Canada is being hollowed out.

So it can be asked - why are we still part of a trade pact that is destroying us? NAFTA was supposed to benefit all 3 countries, not just one.

And NAFTA's not set in stone, BTW. Any of the 3 countries can give notice and withdraw from it - which would probably be a net plus for the US and Canada.

We gave it a shot, it didn't work. Try something new.

Trump is throwing raw meat to the crowd. If a politician gets up there and explains the real details of how to fix the problem, people will fall asleep, like they do at Jeb’s “rallies.” (not that Jeb is giving real details, he’s just boring).

Trump is communicating intent, and winning in the polls.
