so when will trump have all his products made in America?? when he does then he’ll be taken seriously on trade.

countries where trump products are outsourced to-

china
japan
hondoras
brazil
italy
norway
germany

In fact trump supported outsourcing

“We hear terrible things about outsourcing jobs — how sending work outside of our companies is contributing to the demise of American businesses,” wrote Trump. “But in this instance I have to take the unpopular stance that it is not always a terrible thing.”

“I understand that outsourcing means that employees lose jobs,” continued Trump. “Because work is often outsourced to other countries, it means Americans lose jobs. In other cases, nonunion employees get the work. Losing jobs is never a good thing, but we have to look at the bigger picture.”

I take him seriously already...Who in the running would know more about how to change the system to benefit the U.S.??? He knows exactly why he's offshoring...He knows exactly what it would take to get his companies into America...

Only when an apparel (sewing factory) industry is reestablished in the US of a size to produce a significant percentage of the clothing purchased in the US. During their primary, it was said several time that SC has lost 300,000 textile jobs in recent decades. That's why Trump and many others who have a clothing line have little choice but to seek overseas producers.

Some of those nations on your list you say Trump uses are definitely not cheap labor nations, but apparently still have a significant apparel industry.
