Let me just say congratulations to David Letterman for a great 1-2 punch on Mr. Trump.  The look on his face is priceless … BUSTED stone cold and even one of the world’s biggest bullshitters couldn’t figure out what to say.

See if you can explain the disconnect between Donald Trump’s constant lambasting about China with the FACT that Donald Trump makes a lot of money by his products being made in China instead of the U.S.  It’s called hypocrisy.  How does a person pretend to be pro-American jobs on the one hand … constantly deriding a president who has a very good record of taking on the Chinese with tariffs and then on the other hand cashing in paychecks hand over first by building Chinese made products and selling them to American consumers?  Well – this is the same problem that Mitt Romney has; you can read more on Mitt Romney’s China problem HERE.

Some of Mr. Trump’s statements on China:
China is our enemy; they’re bilking us for billions. (Dec 2011)

“China is raping this country”

“China is succeeding off our money. We’re making so many products in China and then paying China so much money to buy those products.We’ve fallen into the Chinese trap, and now we’re destroying the dollar to compete with them.  We should keep the dollar strong and should tax Chinese products.  But we don’t have free trade with China. It will literally destroy this country if we don’t get smart quickly. They’ll do it with a smile, and our people will have no idea what’s happening.  I’d love to have a trade war with China.  If we do no business with China, we’ll save a lot of money. We’re losing a fortune to China.”  (source).

“<The Chinese> are not our friends. They’re looking to strip us of everything they can strip us of.  I think the biggest threat is that our jobs are being stolen by other countries. We’re not going to have any jobs here pretty soon.” (source).
