I'd say Michigan is pretty much a win for Trump now. How many EC votes is that ?

This Mexico stuff really p***** me off. No EPA there. It’s one big sewer. Taxes? Who knows....but it’s sure not the corporate taxes they would pay here.

We Trump people knew this months ago......Donald brings it up in almost every rally.
Nabisco is going there too......no more oreos for us!

But if Trump is President he’s going to slap a 35% tax on every car, truck and part coming in from Mexico.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Manufacturing labor costs in Mexico are approximately 1/5 of those in the United States.

Labor costs sure don't help, but taxes, regulations, product liability and insurance also drive business out of the country.

So we get their low skill laborers and Mexico gets our high paying factory jobs.

Sadly, if you want to buy a new American-built car, with a majority of American-Made parts, you have to go to a HONDA DEALER....

Cool. I'm a free-marketeer. Every dollar I save is a dollar earned. Used to buy “Made in America” exclusively. Never again. Companies and the Unions took advantage of the dopes like me who thought that was the patriotic thing to do. At least with the Communist Chinese, they admit they're Socialists, proudly profess it, unlike us who toy around the edges with the idea and are actually headed there, even beyond them (we passed up France). All I ask now is for the best product made at the least price tendered, period. Then I win, they (take your pick of who) lose.
