Trump seems more focused on fair trade rather than misnamed free trade.

I agree. I didn't have any idea about how unfair trade conditions have been historically.

Fair Trade instead of Free Trade. Great way to frame it.

Considering the Trump Tariffs are just reciprocal (same as they are imposing on us) then that seems reasonable.

Yes. I don't believe Reagan meant "free trade" to mean what it became. I believe he meant "fair trade" for both parties involved, not the host (the USA) getting sucked dry by the internal and external parasites and leaches.

If charity begins at home, so then prosperity as well. Producing high value manufactures domestically is not a mortal sin, it is the health and wealth of a nation. It is the future.

All the 'free trade' talk was Globalist nonsense cultivated in their schools and incestuous organization. Something had to be done about the massive trade imbalance. It was so bad that America had nothing further to lose. America was close to a total collapse.
