Globalization can't be stopped like that...
That approach will turn the clock back..
We are a service economy..
The days of working in the plant for 30 years and getting the gold watch is gone...

Train up and get to work..

You are correct, but I don't think Trump is trying to stop Globalization. I think Trump is genuinely trying to save and bring back American jobs. It's these types of things that make me believe Trump is a true outsider. Trump, being an outsider, means he's not in the loop in knowing that U.S. labor jobs have gone overseas to turn 3rd world countries, like those in Central and South America, into 1st world countries, and apart of "the West."

@Distancerunner: Well, we have to believe in something, because there is no more faith in the old system.
