Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump warned that he would force Apple, the U.S.'s most profitable company, to manufacture all of its products in the U.S. if he is elected president in November 2016.
Seriously? That's more straight-up insane than building the Mexico wall. At least you can throw money at the wall and make it a thing. You know what? Forget the wall completely, and give Apple tax breaks to make it's products in Mexico. Mexico is much more likely to cough up money for that than for a wall, and it curbs the immigration issue.
Trump has a lot of policies which can't be described as anything other than straight-up fascism. He's certainly more scary than Bush was.

I get it that he wants to bring American jobs back and stop the outsourcing, but the reasons for outsourcing are many, such as the supply chain. Seems like it would be easier to get jobs back here by rewarding rather than punishing.
Also, this is a bit old (from the 8th), but still:

Theres also this juicy bit from

I'm a bit surprised nobody has picked that up for an attack ad (to my knowledge, though the democrats have probably stored the information for future use), but of course though, it's kind of a 'I heard from a friend of a friend' fact and not proveable.
