yes Trump has created THOUSANDS of union jobs here in the US.

You’re being dishonest by trying to say he lends his name to an organization but doesnt benefit from that.

“He also builds lots of hotels. Did you want him to build Trump Hotel Rio De Janeiro in Kansas?”

Sure, I think people should invest in the US. Perhaps you think thats a bad thing. I wouldn’t call it Hotel Rio De Janeiro but thats his choice.

“I have a better question. How much has Trump invested in the U.S. compared to Mr. Cruz or any other candidate?”

I don’t know. I do know Trump has given a lot more money to leftists than Cruz has. He’s also supported unions and illegals far more.

Trump has been a liberal his entire life.

You are.

Why would he let his name be used if he’s not going to benefit?

You’re saying if the project works it was his idea. If it fails than it was just his name.

Thats dishonest.

I don’t know.

More, way more then ALL of them put together x1000. Now you can pretend not to know this. Btw, if you practice at playing stupid, you'll get better and be more convincing.

So 2.2% of all jobs in Ohio have been lost because of some trade agreement that hasn’t gone into effect yet? Anyone else skeptical?
It’s like these are the projections of some anti-TPP group, whose results disagree with the projections of the pro-TPP groups. (There’s a shock.) How many economic models are there? The same as the number of economists.

Thanks for pointing that out. Checked the article and found what is below. Ohio is hurting for jobs either way.

However, it should be mentioned that they at least brought the TPP into the conversation. Faux News hasn’t even mentioned the TPP, to my knowledge. I have heard it mentioned on other networks though.

From article

Early reaction to EPI’s report has predictably reflected the opposing views of TPP’s supporters and opponents. Opponents, including unions, have said the analysis is spot-on. Supporters, including the Obama Administration, which has championed TTP, have questioned its findings.

For example, a spokesman for the Office of the United States Trade Representative, said the report’s methodology is flawed. The report includes some estimates based on an analysis of government data.

“The method EPI uses to create these numbers was given ‘Four Pinocchios’ by The Washington Post’s independent fact checker last year for being a ‘whopper’, yet they continue to use it,”

Woa woa, let's not critically think and please do not click the link and read. And absolutely do not review the original source, which of course throws out numbers without any methodology...

This sort of behavior is not TOLERATED on FR.. better to post GO Trump, Cruz a globalist.

The lawyers/politicians have done such a great job. Just look at their performance over the past 25 years!

Who cares if they economically gang banged entire Middle America and put the next 10 generations of their off spring into choking debt.

Looking sharp buddy

Yep and Trump has made lots of cash helping those politicians.

You’re sounding very communist there. Down with big business, down with the political class!

He was donating a ton of cash to help them do it.

In other words you don’t have a valid response to why he was supporting the leftists.

‘Four Pinocchios’ from the WaPo are usually a badge of honor. (Nothing really deserves ‘Four Pinocchios’ unless it's published by them, the NY Times, or LA Times.
