Lets not forget Reagan is also the one who startrd shipping our manufacturing jobs to China..
He also created federal road tax on gas and diesel which was supposed to pay for our road maintance.. It gets raised all the time but for some reason the roads are still shit.. he also spent us into massive debt...

Your aware Team Trump is in the process of rolling back EPA requirements for cars?

China is already the largest car market.. they buy 23 million cars a year.
American car market is stagnant, if they can maintain current sales they will be fucking lucky! China's is going to TRIPPLE IN THE NEXT 10 Years..
China is demanding pollution free/ reduced cars, ford is already investing more money in China than the USA, as is every other notable car maker, American made cars will quickly be known as stink bombs and not saleable anywhere.
Its actually a classic example of what I said, Team Trump is not only doing damage they are doing long term UNRECOVERABLE damage.
You think kicking Trump out will fix it? nope damage is done, no country is trusting the USA again on trade deals, even if there's another Obama by the time wounds are healed.. Its too late deals are done and in that time frame.. China takes over.
Trumps fucked the USA forever.
