Trump: I 'very much agree' with Sanders on trade

Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump on Sunday said he and Democratic primary candidate Bernie Sanders "very much agree" on trade. “Well it’s very interesting that you say that, because the one thing we very much agree on is trade,” Trump said on CNN’s “State of the Union.” “We both agree that we’re getting ripped off by China, by Japan, by Mexico, by everybody we do business with.” Asked how he would differentiate himself with the Vermont senator to New Hampshire independents who may be torn, the billionaire businessman said he will actually be able to do something to correct trade imbalances. “The difference is, I can do something about it. I’m going to renegotiate those trade deals and make them good – and, believe me, they’re going to be really good,” he said. “Bernie can’t do anything about it, because it’s not his thing,” he added. “He won’t be able to do anything about it. I’ll create absolute gold out of those deals, whereas right now we’re losing tens of billions and even hundreds of billions of dollars.” “I will create gold, and Bernie will just talk about how bad they are.”

That is what I was yelling at the TV when he was rambling on about how he was going to fix all the imbalances we have with China, Japan, and Mexico by renegotiating trade deals,  because making deals is what he's  good at.  And his supporters just eat up. They Love this kind of talk. But  He can do none of this,  or prevent companies from moving operations to these countries without going through congress to pass these taxes, tariffs, and trade deals.

I only wish one of the other candidates would  have pointed this out, but they just keep letting the opportunity slip by.
