Political, yes. Economic, no.
The Founders wanted entangling economic alliances? LOLOLOL. Thats funny. BTW, how do you separate economy from politics in trade? Do you just cover your eyes and ears and pretend slave labor and political despotism has no connection to the goods you purchase from communist and totalitarian nations, or do you really believe that free people paid market wages are producing those "cheap goods" for the nationless "consumers" in the "free traders" global utopia?
