I did lots of campaign work for Pat and Perot in 1992 because they were both economic nationalists. WE WERE RIGHT!
WE WERE RIGHT!
WE WERE RIGHT!
PAT WAS RIGHT!
PAT WAS RIGHT!

Being Jewish I had to put aside Pat’s anti-Israel agenda. I worked for him anyways in New Hampshire for the 1992 primary. Donald is the comeback of Pat Buchanan but 20 years too late. After the horses have left the barn.

Now we have to REVERSE free trade damage. 25 years ago the job was easier because all we had to do was PREVENT free trade damage from China and others

Screw Wall St and scum of DC that sold us out to get rich. And by the scum of DC I mean the powerful lobbyists as well as the elected Representatives.

There was a time where items purchased at Walmart were labeled, made in USA. Today not so much.

Some of the stuff from China comes with Made in the USA labels.

Pat was right on target in those days.

I agree that Trump has picked up the gauntlet.

We are so fortunate to have him right now.

Captain obvious. Some American people have known this for a decade or more and supported MADE IN THE USA companies.

Where have all these bureaucrats been hiding? OR now is it just okay for these ostriches to look up.

Great post, dw.

I can only imagine how much better off we would have been with Buchanan (rather than with “Pres. 10,000 Points of Light”), not only on trade, but also immigration, etc.
