The world does not play on an even field and it is time that is corrected. This is principally an issue with China, although NAFTA should also be addressed.

Both Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton recognized trade imbalance as a major issue and made trade part of their campaigns.

I am very sorry we have an orange idiot child for president, but I do support the managing of capitalism when it becomes unfair to the citizens of our country.
