Traveling in Trump's Time Warp

Dear Donald Trump: China, Japan and Mexico are not “killing us” (Fareed Zakaria) from the Washington Post
"... if there is an idea animating his candidacy, it is that the United States is being badly beaten by its economic competitors. In his speech on foreign policy this week, Trump explained that America is being bested by countries such as China, Japan and Mexico because their leaders are “smarter, more cunning and sharper than our leaders.” “They’re killing us,” he often says. This is an odd moment to make these charges because the reality is almost entirely the opposite."
