The free ride from the U.S. is over...

The press in Asia are reporting that newly-inaugurated President Donald Trump has moved quickly to put his policy of “America First” into action by withdrawing from the Trans-Pacific Partnership.

By pulling out of the trade deal – Barack Obama’s signature trade program – Trump marked a quick and significant shift away from globalism.

It should come as no surprise. Trump had promised to withdraw from the TPP many times on the campaign trail. In his blistering inauguration address, Trump said that the era of America being exploited by foreign countries through unfair trade dals was over. Also over was the world’s reliance on a free ride from the United States.

“For many decades, we’ve enriched foreign industry at the expense of American industry; subsidized the armies of other countries, while allowing for the very sad depletion of our military,” he said.

“One by one, the factories shuttered and left our shores, with not even a thought about the millions and millions of American workers that were left behind.”

World capitals are in shock. The leaders of Japan and Great Britain will meet with President Trump in the coming weeks. Japan is particularly nervous about America’s new stance.

Trump has repeatedly said that he is not against free trade, as long as it is fair trade. Deals that send companies and jobs offshore are not in this nation’s best interest and will not be approved by this President.

Since he has been sworn in, are we officially "winning" now? Some thought the prior wins were leftover Obama victories. This clearly is NOT. This is a Trump win loud and clear.
