Remember Trump's Platform?

The Last Refuge brings us a bit of Memory Lane.

From the outset of Donald Trump’s entry into the world of politics he espoused a series of key tenets around what he called his “America-First” objectives:

1. The U.S. needed to have control over our borders, and a greater ability to control who was migrating to the United States.  A shift toward stopping ‘illegal’ migration.
2. The U.S. needed to stop the manufacture of goods overseas and return critical manufacturing back to the United States.  A return to economic independence.
3. The U.S. needed to decouple from an over-reliance on Chinese industrial and consumer products.  China viewed as a geopolitical and economic risk.

This program flew directly against the interests of the Clintons and Bidens--both of which were massively enriched by ChiCom manipulations and direct contributions--and those of Big Finance, which financialized productive businesses through mergers, private-equity, and LBO's, eventually driving those businesses into the arms of................yup.........Red China.  (At THIS link, there's plenty more on the topic.)

So, of course, the opposition was ferocious, and remains so.

Just so happens that Trump was right.  That's a real bitch for the Entitled Establishment, eh?
