So Much for President Trump’s ‘Buy American and Hire American’ Executive Orders
President Donald Trump is using actors from nations around the globe to portray supposedly real Americans in his presidential campaign re-election ads.

Less than three months after he took office, President Trump signed his “Buy American and Hire American” executive order. “It shall be the policy of the executive branch to buy American and hire American,” the order stated.

The goal: “to promote economic and national security and to help stimulate economic growth, create good jobs at decent wages, strengthen our middle class, and support the American manufacturing and defense industrial bases,” the order reads.

Two years later, Trump signed yet another executive order, “intended to expand his ‘Buy American, Hire American’ initiative to encourage agencies to apply such requirements to new types of government purchases,” CNN reported.
