I've seen conflicting claims on this. Other reports say trade has caused massive job losses.
Anyone who lives in a formerly manufacturing heavy area is going to be find that argument hard to believe. We see companies closing down shops and moving them overseas time and time again.

We see companies closing down shops and moving them overseas time and time again. The studies I mentioned showed that about 15% of the manufacturing jobs lost in the US were sent overseas due to trade. That's a small proportion of the total jobs that were lost, but it still adds up to a lot of people seeing their local factories close down.
