Annie, do you really believe Trump was responsible for jobs leaving the country""""".....

He took his out didn't he, that makes him a hypocrite opposite to what he is saying now.

Look I don't care if he has businesses out of this country, BUT the hypocrisy of blaming others for losing jobs, the hypocrisy of using immigrants to do the jobs he says Americans won't do. The Hypocrisy of I WILL BRING THE JOBS BACK TO AMERICA......and yet he don't?

His own statements contradict what he says and what he does. that is the ignorance of defending him.

Labor is a small part of the cost of a manufactured good. ........................... Really? Labor starts with the farmer, digger, engineer, artist, etc etc etc required to produce anything. A car engine has to be designed, metal is needed, to be melted into forms which had to be produced to produce parts, that needed to be finished, and drilled and welded etc.etc.blah blah blah, and that was only 8% ?? FANTASTIC!

All the materials that go into a car have a starting point, and it starts with a laborer and ends up being driven out by a laborer. Looks like a lot of labor to me. What do I know, I’m just some old guy who bought a new car for $1500 when I graduated from college. I had a 10 yr old Pontiac before that which cost me $115. I worked in a men’s shop when I was in college. I was even a Union member. So what. When I say the labor costs killed us, its based on the wages that went from 1.00 an hour to what the average pay today is, i.e. my garage mechanic gets $75 an hour, not $5-10 like back in 1957, I earned $100 a week as a school teacher, today they start at about 45K. We are the ones responsible for the cost of living that keeps rising, and what do we do, we keep it going and wonder why some billion plus other people are willing to work for far less, doing the same jobs. Had any problems with your i phones lately? Need technical help, no problem its there, but can you understand what they are saying? Also where is it made? My phone is $840, but there are clones out there for far less, and they are made in the same foreign country. Go figure. Can’t we make them here for the same lower price like the clones? I’m going off on a tangent, but I think most understand what I trying to say about the rising cost of living, that virtually keeps us off the playing field.

“And you are so very naive about Trump and his shenanigans and business failures.”

That is laughable, literally. You are talking about one of the most successful men in the US today. Wow, you are going to feel really used by those you are getting your information from.

annie, I’ve tried to explain my feelings on this subject of Trump’s fashion sense and whether he is going to bring back jobs. Congress created these trade pacts, not Trump. You scream because he doesn’t bring back jobs immediately, without any assurance of such a move having a chance of success. Frankly, you sound like a one trick pony with your persistent use of upper case dialogue to announce your feelings towards promise of jobs. Aside from that, you got nothing. I asked you to explain the hypocrisy of your candidate getting money from the sweat of cheap labor, but you just continue with the same rant. BTW, when your candidate is caught flip-flopping on an issue will you be as quick to call him out on it? Based on your scarcely hidden dislike of Trump I sincerely doubt it.
Now I’ll let you go back to your screed with its indiscriminate use of caps because trying to discuss this with you is a waste of time. IMO, a Mosler safe door is like an open window compared to your closed mind.
Good luck and let’s hope the next person occupying the Oval Office is one of ours.

“It's NOT aobut me, so don't make it about me.”

It is not about you - it is about what you post on this site.

Let me ask the question another way: You say Morgan Lewis LLP contributed $67,550 to the Cruz campaign. And you say Goldman Sachs contributed $69,350 to the Cruz campaign.

Are you absolutely certain what you have published for others to read is true?

“You don’t get it. I’m not saying it, I’m relaying the message. It’s NOT about me.”

Oh, that makes all the difference. You simply published information that you now know is false and walk away from it in hopes someone will read and believe it.

By any chance, are you a Trump supporter?

“This is false?? —>>Google search “Ted Cruz” “Rebekah Mercer”

Now is a fine time to worry if something you have published on the Internet is false.

Next time, ask yourself this question before you post.

You should already know this having just published false accusations against Morgan Lewis LLP and others.

While not the cheapest, Trump suits are not as expensive as other non-Chinese makers. $280 at Amazon is high for me, but average for those suit penguins who work in cities.

That is a google search that returns NOTHING I “published on the internet”. Get real, and quit making it about me.

Everything you post of FR is false so it stands to reason that anything you have “published” on the internet would also be false.
