What Limiting Foreign Trade Means for the USA

Trump wants to put "America first" and bring jobs home by ending multilateral trade agreements, but globalization has pushed our country forward, major companies would suffer greatly and America's standard of living would decrease if these trade agreements were to be abolished. Trump desires one-on-one trade agreements but many countries are not interested, so instead of "America first," the slogan would change to "America Alone." This article was interesting as the idea of bringing jobs to America on the surface sounds great, but the actual affects of that action might not be in our nation's best interest. PBS Newshour used Boeing as a great example to explain the situation in this newscast: https://www.pbs.org/newshour/show/what-limiting-foreign-trade-would-mean-for-the-u-s-economy -Emily Migala
