That means that your perception of the President as being against global trade is not only wrong, but really, really wrong. President Trump is promoting trade.

Right, it is all how you define trade. The word trade and the word tariff mean nothing used alone. They both need qualifiers to make sense. All forms of trade are not good but you cannot admit that because you are some kind of religious free trade globalist zealot and traitor.

Ok, I will give you chance, YES or NO is one sided "free trade" ( and you know what I mean by that ) with the accompanying huge trade deficits bad for both America's economy and the American worker?

There never has been and never will be Free Trade. Nations will always act in their own best interest.

I don't worry about trade imbalances nor American workers that are unable to compete. There will always be trade imbalances and labor competition. The textile industry moved from England to Massachusetts to the Carolinas because of labor and manufacturing costs.

Americans are not entitled to specific jobs, be that working in a paint brush factory or working in IT. Labor is a commodity to be purchased where ever available at the best cost and quality.

Regarding “one sided”. We are Americans. We will exert our excellance and prevail
