We buy a tremendous amount of garments from them. That's essentially what killed the cotton industry in America. All the garment processing business went to Mexico. NAFTA sent all of those jobs to the lowest wage bidder.
People are scared of this standoff with Mexico. Temporarily it puts Commerce in jeopardy, but this battle is needed in the worst way.
I know everyone thinks Trumps statement "we don't win anymore" is corny, but it's so true. We play by the rules and let Mexico, China, India, Japan and Vietnam take advantage of our honest business dealings.

I buy strictly cotton. And I check the label. None of it is made in Mexico. Lots of foreign countries. But not Mexico.
