The never-ending POTUS Election thread....

This is probably as much hate on Schumer as it is liking AOC. But if AOC wins the primary, it may be the best opportunity for Republicans to take a senate seat from NY in a long time.

The massive voter fraud will 100% prevent that

This is the problem for Trump. These horrible trade policies we put in place over 30 years ago have become status quo. Now, to fix the problem the pain will be greater than it would have been had we done what was necessary in the first place.

But remember how these deals were put in place to begin with. Perot is right. Cheap labor drove most of our manufacturing overseas. But it wasn't just manufacturing. It was also software development. We gave away our strategic advantages so corporations could fire American workers and save money. All the while, other countries saw the problem and put in protectionist laws to keep their own workers employed.

I have first hand experience dealing with countries like Germany, Poland and Mexico where they have laws that force foreign businesses to employ local workers. Some require personal data of their citizens to be housed in data centers in their countries. It has nothing to do with security. It is about keeping their tech workers employed. It's not just China.
