Trump Calls for American Independence Agenda to Defeat Coronavirus: U.S. Must Never Rely on a Foreign Country
Breitbart ^ | 3/24/2020 | John Binder

Posted on 03/24/2020 6:38:49 PM PDT by bitt

President Trump is calling for Republicans and Democrats to unite behind his American independence agenda to defeat the spread of the Chinese coronavirus.

During a Tuesday press conference, Trump detailed the “critical” need for American independence in manufacturing, the energy sector, and territorially at the nation’s borders to stop the coronavirus crisis:

"We should never be reliant on a foreign country for the means of our own survival. I think we’ve learned a lot. This crisis has underscored just how critical it is to have strong borders and a robust manufacturing sector. For three years, we’ve embarked on a great national project to secure our immigration system and bring back our manufacturing jobs. We’ve brought back many jobs, record numbers of jobs, and this really shows, this experience shows how important borders are. Without borders, you don’t have a nation. [Emphasis added]"

Trump said his agenda to fighting the coronavirus and lifting the United States out of a state of globalist dependency includes manufacturing pharmaceuticals and essential supplies and equipment in America, made by American workers.

“Our goal for the future must be to have American medicine for American patients, American supplies for American hospitals, and American equipment for our great American heroes,” Trump said. “Now both parties must unite to ensure America is truly an independent nation in every sense of the word.”

"We should never be reliant on a foreign country for the means of our own survival."

Absolutely true. At some point in the past, many of us completely lost our good, common sense. We can't remain the 'city upon a hill' and the 'beacon of hope' that we've been for so many for hundreds of years, if we allow ourselves to become weak and dependent.

Everybody knows this is right. This is what Trump has been saying all along. The American people will support this. Strong borders, a strong manufacturing sector and a strong national defense.

Time to reopen those rare earth element mines, wherever in the U. S. those may be. That will also be good for Caterpillar Inc.

Trump was the original ‘America First’ patriot. Go back an listen to his Oprah interviews from 20 years ago. This virus was the catalyst to unite the county behind his vision - fore ordained I believe. He is the Gray Champion
