Pretty thin on details. Will he try to repeal NAFTA? Will he reverse trade agreements with China? Will he use ground troops on ISIS?

You are the only one who posted a negative comment about this speech to me. Where’s the foreign policy speech by any other candidate in the race?? Like nowhere. THAT is what is “pretty thin on details”.

This speech has 230K views on the RSBN youtube channel. In less than ten hours!!

I guess you would have listened to all the other statements Trump made in the past or published.

NAFTA

I think NAFTA has been a disaster. I think our current deals are a disaster. I’m a free trader. The problem with free trade is, you need smart people representing you. We have the greatest negotiators in the world, but we don’t use them. We use political hacks and diplomats. We use the wrong people. Mexico is smart; they have out-negotiated us to a fare-thee-well. They’re going to be the capital of automobiles pretty soon, the way they’re going.

Trade Agreements with China

I’m sick of always reading about outsourcing. Why aren’t we talking about “onshoring”? We need to bring manufacturing jobs back home where they belong. Onshoring, or “repatriation,” is a way for us to take back the jobs China is stealing. We know that China’s wages are increasing. Also, China lacks certain natural resources that we have in abundance. If we exploit those two key facts, we can begin making the case to companies that they should bring their manufacturing facilities home to America.

ISIS

“We really have no choice. We have to knock out ISIS,” he said. “I would listen to the generals, but I’m hearing numbers of 20,000 to 30,000.”

I can only presume that you wanted everything covered in this one speech, where Trump has continually and consistently let his views be known.

A simple google check will answer many of your questions.
