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

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.”

Trump's right... And the deep state goons who sold us out to China... they can go to hell.

American citizens killed the US manufacturing base when the purchased the cheapest goods in the stores. Remember that when you make a purchase. Of course, you have to look pretty had for products manufactured here.

Put ‘tariffs from hell’ on all antibiotics coming from China OR any other country that’s ‘less than friend’...

Then massive subsides for producing the first 10% of antibiotics used in the United States...

That keeps our capacity while still allowing savings.

Exactly — and ship all of the environmentalists to the third world country of their choice since that is the way they wa to live.

Or if that is too difficult, find out where they live and cut off their water, electricity, gas and plumbing.
