I can't remember our side or the press badgering him as to whether he would move production to the US at any time. Clinton attacked him a lot but I can never remember him being asked about it at a debate?

"Mr Trump you have condemed outsourcing, but your products are not made in the US.
Why should voters trust you to address this issue and if elected will you move production to the us" ????
