HARTFORD, Conn. — Donald Trump charged Ted Cruz with bowing to foreign interests and supporting the Chinese government's manipulation of its currency at a rally here on Friday night
Trump lodged the accusation during remarks on the decline of Connecticut's manufacturing sector, which he blamed on the entrance of China into the World Trade Organization and the country’s devaluing of its currency. “Cruz wants it to go on because somebody probably representing interests in China says, ‘This is what we want,’” Trump said.
Trump may be referring to the Texas senator’s vote last year against an amendment to TPP fast-track legislation proposed by Ohio Republican Sen. Rob Portman and Michigan Democratic Sen. Debbie Stabenow that would have made it “a principal negotiating objective of the United States to address currency manipulation in trade agreements.”
