Your Opinion: 'Made in America Week' with out-of-this-country shoes

Dear Editor:

Along with Donald Trump, I am celebrating and applauding the past week as "Made in America Week." As Donald famously said: "American is best!"

Some of the Trump line of attire is made in America. That being said, the vast majority is made overseas in China, Mexico, Bangladesh etc. Purportedly, 100,000 pairs of Ivanka's shoes have been made at just one factory in China.

I certainly applaud Mexico being one of the manufacturing sites. After all, Mexico will pay for "that wall." With such monetary beneficence on the part of Mexico, it's the least we can do economically for Mexico's amazing generosity in helping "making America great again!"
