Senator Markwayne Mullin: âPresident Trump is the first President we've had that actually has a backbone strong enough to stand up and say we've got to right this wrong, start manufacturing goods here. China has got rich off our country. We have spent trillions of dollars building China's economyâ¦â

What the president is trying to say is we got to put the American worker back. We're not making things here, and we have lost thousands of jobs because of our unfair trade deals we've had with countries since World War II. Listen, Nixon talked about this, Ford talked about this, Jimmy Carter talked about this, Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush, Obama. The only president that hasn't talked about this is Biden, how we have been getting ripped off in this country, and we're no longer making products, and it's a serious issue. President Trump is the first one, first president we've had that actually has a backbone strong enough to stand up and say we've got to right this wrong, start manufacturing goods here. China has got rich off of our country. We have spent trillions of dollars building China's economy, 40% of all their goods they manufacture are sold back here in the United States, and they rip us off all the time. They rip off our technology, they rip off our companies that do business there, they have unfair business deals, and then they also take advantage of our farmers that ship goods over there by canceling products all the time, and then renegotiating the deal once they're already on the ships in the Pacific. So President Trump is standing up to the bully China and saying enough is enough, and by the way, we've all heard about the Belt and Road Initiative. China was trying to do that to make all countries dependent on them. What President Trump is doing is blowing holes all in the Belt and Road Initiative right now which good on President Trump.
