Chris Wallace Presses Cruz on Picking a Veep With a Record of Outsourcing

 

chris wallace cruzOutsourcing and bringing jobs back to America has been a major theme on the campaign trail, so Chris Wallace confronted Ted Cruz this morning on why he picked a VP with a reputation for outsourcing when she was in the private sector.

Yes, as Wallace pointed out, when Fiorina ran Hewlett Packard, tens of thousands of workers were laid off and many jobs were outsourced to India and China. This is especially relevant this week as Indiana––where the next big primary is happening this week––is dealing with some outsourcing problems of its own.

Cruz waived it off and talked up Fiorina’s overall record before Wallace got him back on track.

He proceeded to lash out at Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton, and President Obama for wanting to punish companies that outsource instead of finding real solutions.
