Forever? Garbage. The Clinton's did not change the Democrat Party forever. And the thought occurs,
if they had not gone for the big money could they have broken the Reagan - HW Bush procession.

Reagan's corporate culture took jobs offshore more than Clinton's trade deals.

NAFTA and other trade deals have not gutted American manufacturing — period

[...]
Trump and Sanders were apocalyptic in their discussions of trade, and then Clinton abandoned the truth, too
[...]
Adding up the effects of the much-maligned trade agreements
The relative decline in employment in manufacturing since World War II is the biggest structural change, or evolution, to hit the American economy over the past half-century. Politicians, with their preference for truthiness over the facts, attribute roughly all the 22 percentage point decline since 1971 in the manufacturing employment share to NAFTA, to China's entry into the WTO, and to a few other scattered "corporately backed unfettered free trade agreements.” But — I really would like to drive this home — the worrisome part from trade is not the decline in the manufacturing job share from 30 percent to 12.2 percent, but the "excess" decline from 12.2 percent to 8.6 percent. That worrisome part of the decline of the manufacturing job share is, roughly, only one-sixth of the total decline: 3.6 percentage points. And the amount of decline attributable to the two big bad trade agreements is only one-tenth of that: 0.36 percentage points.
P - In sum, we can attribute a mere one-tenth of the excess reduction relative to Germany in the manufacturing job share to NAFTA and to China joining the WTO.

And, B402, noted you say "Then Clinton started to wave of work leaving America......." even almost immediately after you were given:

The White House is only telling you half of the sad story of what happened to American jobs
[...]The problem didn't start in the 1990s, it started in the 1980s, when Ronald Reagan — a hero of the Trump administration — was president, and neoliberal economics were first making their mark on policy. Reagan and his ilk distrusted government and believed that the private sector could make the best decisions when left on its own. You've heard about this — it's called laissez faire economics.
P - This ideology ultimately led to the financialization of the US corporation — the process of putting shareholders first, often at the expense of workers and consumers — and its emergence as an actor that takes resources from the economy rather than creating them. This, combined with a government zeal for lowering taxes rather than spending, means no one — not the government, and not the private sector — is investing enough in America to keep the economy strong across social classes.

And after others here had earlier given you evidence that your blaming Clinton for starting offshoring is just not true.
