People think its about Trump’s brash style - but that only works if he is pushing an agenda people want - and they don’t want this current free trade ideology and globalism open borders. When did conservatives embrace free trade as a principle? It’s not what the founding fathers did and it was not the historic position of the GOP. The Democrats of the confederacy wanted free trade but GOP favored protection of American industry/manufacturing. We had our greatest innovations and amazing quality control under that manufacturing trade system.
