Quite the opposite. It is the corporate motherfuckers who are moving jobs to other countries not the Mexican immigrants. The republicunts have always engaged in the magicians trick of distracting people from what they are doing.
And the low-information morons who make up the base fall for it every time.
Oh, I wasn't saying that Trump's prescriptions are apt. My point was about the mindsets of his base, not his own.
