party platform.
Trumps Proposed Great Chinese Tariff Wall
Trumps tariff wall is undoubtedly illegal under the WTO rules.

For Trump to impose the unilateral tariffs on China that he has proposed, he would have to take the US out of the WTO.
Texas GOP 2012 Platform:
We oppose foreign aid except in cases of national defense or catastrophic disasters, with congressional approval.
We support US withdrawal from the International Monetary Fund, the World Trade Organization and the a World Bank.
We support the withdrawal of the United States from the United Nations and the removal of U.N. headquarters from United States soil.
