Not sure why you guys are surprised that Republicans are breaking with Trump on trade.  Look up the TPP vote.

And realignment continues!


Welcome back American System, been too long. We need to catch up!

Just what I expected and predicted would happen. He would use tariffs to try and help the previous losers in the old free trade consensus and then use subsidies to keep those elements who profited under the old system from bolting.

Combining tariffs with subsidies and low interest rates (if Trump had his way) is like something straight out of the Whig Party or the early Republicans.

Little different this time around, if you ask me.
