He is first and foremost a devotee of free trade. Now I love free trade too, like Trump does, but when the other guys are employing something akin to slave labor and our workers must compete with that because labor standards are ignored, that’s not free trade, right? Don’t tell Mark Levin that. he would rip your head off for that remark. But he’s wrong on that point.

There’s Free Trade, and there’s Fair Trade.

Free Trade is what now prevails as the status quo. It’s what you described above, and it’s killing this country.

Trump believes in Fair Trade, which means that all parties are subject to the same rules, regulations, etc. In other words, a level playing field, where no party has an unfair advantage over the other, baked into the process.

The crony capitalists of the Uniparty have almost destroyed America with their Free Trade deals. They sold off our market advantages to globalist vultures, and got filthy rich in the process. Trump means to end all that, and put American jobs and business first, again.
