  3. I think he wants to revitalize the hat business. It's been on his mind.

    Trump wants to 'bring back' the jobs like assembling flat-screen TVs and mobile phones paying $2.50 per hour. Instead of being happy we can exploit poor-as-fuck people in Bangladesh and China to do all the dirty manual work for us for rock-bottom prices... instead Trump wants to bring back jobs that NO ONE HERE WANTS TO DO!

    Anyone buying this 'lets bring back those good old jobs' has missed his economics 101 classes.

    You are missing the point. Trump cares about displaced factory workers.

    Well first of all Trump cares about no one but Trump.
    Second, the vast majority of the value in any product in the U.S. comes from and stays in the U.S. because the design, marketing, sales, and service for nearly any product make up the vast majority of that product's value chain. That's a mildly abstract concept, so you have to go beyond mindless slogans and actually think about it.
