NEW YORK–(ENEWSPF)–June 28, 2016. Throughout this campaign, Trump’s statements on trade, like everything else he says, have been erratic and irresponsible, full of bluster and the promise of a reckless trade strategy that would put American jobs at risk. The divisive rhetoric in his today’s speech on trade was no different: rejecting the idea that Americans can compete and win in the global economy, hiding behind walls, and offering bluster without a concrete plan to actually create good-paying jobs here in America. As Hillary Clinton said last week, “There’s a difference between getting tough on trade, and recklessly starting trade wars. The last time we opted for Trump-style isolationism, it made the Great Depression longer and more painful.”
