Joe Biden was an advocate for outsourcing critical U.S. industry to China
"As a longtime member and eventually chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Mr. Biden’s been a key player in the deals and decisions that led the U.S. government to also recognize Beijing, to bring China into the World Trade Organization, and to approve the trade deals that saw jobs and essential elements of the U.S. critical supply chain relocate from our shores to theirs.
In 2000, when he was pushing for normalized trade relations with China — in another of what President Trump has labeled “a bad trade deal” — Mr. Biden said he did not “see the collapse of the American manufacturing economy, as China, a nation with the impact on the world economy about the size of the Netherlands’ suddenly becomes our major economic competitor.”
