Yup.
Above all else the 2016 election was a rejection of Chicago School/Milton Friedman/Lassez-Faire economics.
America took a thirty year test drive, handed back the keys and said “No Sale!”
Any candidate who wants to take us back there is not likely to fare very well.
Your post is confusing to me
Only as far as "Free Trade" is concerned. Even that label was a lie. We gave a trillion dollars of aid to China.
“Above all else the 2016 election was a rejection of Chicago School/Milton Friedman/Lassez-Faire economics.”
Hardly. Neither party did anything remotely resembling Friedman economic policy. A few Republicans paid it lip service but they never actually implemented any of it.

Laughably, demonstrably, and pathetically false. Not one person who voted for Trump was voting against Laissez Faire economics.
2016 was primarily a rejection of Establishment politicians. In the Democrat primaries, ~50% voted for someone who was not a member of the Democrat Party. In the GOP primaries, ~83% voted for candidates who were not politicians, or were anti-Establishment... CEO Carly, CEO Trump, Dr Carson, and the anti-Senator Cruz. That's 2/3 of all voters, even with most of the rest voting for Her Heinous Hillary, the coronated-too-soon queen of America.
Not one poll showed anyone voting for or against Laissez Faire economics. Not one voter protested for or against Milton Friedman. Very very few in the media talked about the usual "it's the economy, stupid" theme, since Obamanomics were so poor. Your hypothesis is utterly without merit or supporting facts. You're simply attempting to impute your preferences on a past event. Again, pathetic.
"Above all else the 2016 election was a rejection of the moon landing hoax!"
Makes just about as much sense.
