Made In America: A Buyers Guide For Donald Trump
Despite his repeated claim and desire to put America First, time and time again Donald Trump has told us he has to manufacture his products abroad. He says its very hard to have apparel made in this country, or that they dont even make the stuff here. Its so hard to get. No, Donald. Just no.
We can see how time consuming multiple bankruptcies and scamming small businesses must be, but really Donald, this is a pretty glaring oversight. It didnt take us long to find over 100 examples of U.S. manufacturers and businesses ready and able to produce the same goods he makes overseas.
Scroll through to see just a few examples of the many American businesses Donald missed.
