Twitter had a field day with this one. Cenk Uygur, host of The Young
Turks, breaks it down.
"President
Donald Trump is set to declare this week “Made In America” week to help
promote products manufactured in the United States, according to The
Hill.
But he’s already coming under fire for the move, given that Trump-branded products are often manufactured overseas.
Many
of Trump’s clothing items have been made in Mexico and China. During
the campaign last year, his use of steel and aluminum from China became a
campaign issue.

on the fashion line of first daughter and White House aide Ivanka
Trump, finding that much of it is made by low-wage workers in countries
such as Bangladesh, Indonesia and China.

Helen Aguirre Ferre was asked on Sunday if the president would use “Made
in America” week to push his daughter to make those products in the
United States.”*
