There is more on this Mid-Continet Nail. China is the winner.

Mid-Continent’s orders for July are only 30 percent of what they were last year, and Skarich is afraid that many of his lost customers will never return.

Skarich voted for Trump, as did 79 percent of surrounding Butler County.

Mid-Continent Nail imports from Mexico most of the metal wire it uses to make nails. By driving up the company’s costs, Trump’s tariffs are making it nearly impossible for the 500-worker company to compete with cheap nails from China, Skarich said.
Does Forbes have Chump of the Year award? I nominate the Dotard.
