Yep, and all our dealings with 'Red' China started out as foreign policy goals. Many like to cast everything as free trade and comparative advantage and lots of other economic jibberish, when the real basis for many of our trade decisions was far more in the foreign policy arena. They just didn't give a damn what the negative impact on the US domestic economy might be.
we’ll never know how many trade deals have gone bad for the US on the basis of intent, or just simple incompetence.
