Trump Says Campaign is a Choice Between “Globalism and Americanism”

It is really hard to take either one of the presidential candidates seriously. Both are known for their mudslinging tactics. Both are also known for their low blows during speeches. We have gotten used to the childish manner both have displayed during the primaries.

Many have been expecting a very dirty and personal death match as we now draw closer to the conventions. It would be of some surprise that one of the two would actually come out and speak about what they want to do as president. But this is exactly what Trump did this afternoon.

Breitbart reports:

Presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump spoke in Monessen, Pennsylvania on Tuesday afternoon, differentiating his trade policy of an independent America from presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton’s record on trade and globalization.

“Our politicians have aggressively pursued a policy of globalization — moving our jobs, our wealth, and our factories to Mexico and overseas,” Trump declared. “Globalization has made the financial elite who donate to politicians very wealthy. But it has left millions of our workers with nothing but poverty and heartache.”

This speech is one of the few times wherein Trump has actually given details about his plans. Plans that sound more like what we would have heard from an old conservative. And he is calling out Clinton for her globalist money grubbing. And even further, Trump listed seven things he intended to do if elected.

Breitbart continued:

One: I am going to withdraw the United States from the Trans-Pacific Partnership, which has not yet been ratified.

Two: I’m going to appoint the toughest and smartest trade negotiators to fight on behalf of American workers.

Three: I’m going to direct the Secretary of Commerce to identify every violation of trade agreements a foreign country is currently using to harm our workers. I will then direct all appropriate agencies to use every tool under American and international law to end these abuses.

Four: I’m going tell our NAFTA partners that I intend to immediately renegotiate the terms of that agreement to get a better deal for our workers. And I don’t mean just a little bit better, I mean a lot better. If they do not agree to a renegotiation, then I will submit notice under Article 2205 of the NAFTA agreement that America intends to withdraw from the deal.

Five: I am going to instruct my Treasury Secretary to label China a currency manipulator. Any country that devalues their currency in order to take advantage of the United States will be met with sharply

Six: I am going to instruct the U.S. Trade Representative to bring trade cases against China, both in this country and at the WTO. China’s unfair subsidy behavior is prohibited by the terms of its entrance to the WTO, and I intend to enforce those rules.

Seven: If China does not stop its illegal activities, including its theft of American trade secrets, I will use every lawful presidential power to remedy trade disputes, including the application of tariffs consistent with Section 201 and 301 of the Trade Act of 1974 and Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962.

All of this sounds excellent, but talking like this might get the man a bullet. Few things are more important than a person’s income. He just threatened many influential people.
