Trump's Re-election Banners Are Being Made in China

in politics •  7 years ago 

Factory workers in eastern China have been working hard since March to churn out about 90,000 “Keep America Great” banners for Donald Trump’s re-election campaign, aiming to fulfill the massive order quickly to avoid the potential economic impact of the president’s trade war. Despite Trump’s constant criticism of China and American companies sending jobs and production abroad, the president has shown little reluctance about taking advantage of lower Chinese prices when it concerns his own bottom line.

My thoughts on this news

Good old hypocrite Trump strikes again, 'do as I say not as I do.' Trump is creating a trade war with other countries, he is telling corporations to hire American workers, he is claiming the economy is booming. He claims he is doing all these things to help Americans, but when it comes to his own greed and wealth, he has no problem with paying slave wages to foreign workers to create his products, instead of paying a living wage to American workers. Just more lies from Trump as usual. This is how the global economy works and no trade tariffs will solve the problems of corporate greed. All corporations and their wealthy owners care about is revenue and profits, they do not care about loyalty to a country nor the people of any country. They will always move to where production is cheapest and send their products and sell them in places where they can earn the most revenue. The global economy is just a game where the rich get richer and everyone else struggles at their daily jobs to try and earn enough to cover the cost of their daily expenses.
