Make America Great Again

Our premier city can't keep the lights on because of summer. This is such an embarrassment. We are the #1 country in the world, and these communists are taking us to the 3rd world.

Trump Was Right All Along

Donald Trump’s core claim about trade and industrial policy was simple and unfashionable: trade is a tool of national power, not an end in itself. The last year has gone a long way toward proving him right.

The damage was done when China was accepted into the WTO and then implemented mercantilist trade practices while global technocrats sat idle. The bet was that China’s integration into the rules-based system would liberalize its politics and normalize its economics.

Instead, subsidized overcapacity, managed exchange rates, and aggressive export targeting gutted large parts of U.S. manufacturing and weakened the broader Western industrial base. What elites treated as efficient globalization was, in practice, the offshoring of productive capacity, the hollowing out of industrial regions, and the strategic empowerment of a geopolitical rival.

That insight shaped everything that followed. Trump argued that the era of frictionless globalization was over, that trade deficits and supply-chain dependence mattered, and that national strength would again rest on productive capacity, industrial depth, and control over strategic resources.

Trumps America First strategy, anchored in the Hamilton–Clay tradition, treated tariffs, trade reviews, and infrastructure as instruments of statecraft. That was dismissed as crude protectionism. It now looks like early recognition of the world we’re actually in. Operation Epic Fury made the geopolitical point even more starkly: Pax Americana is dead.

The evidence is now coming not just from Trump’s allies but from the broader political and intellectual class. Even Paul Krugman has conceded that “conditional tariffs” on Chinese cars are “probably going to be necessary” and warned that Europe cannot allow its auto industry to be hollowed out by Chinese overcapacity. When a progressive Nobel laureate starts agreeing with Trump that tariffs and industrial capacity have a legitimate strategic role, the old consensus is gone. The argument now is no longer over first principles, but over how far and how fast to move.

That shift is showing up in North America as well. The Trump administration’s refusal to extend the current trade pact on existing terms codified what Trump’s worldview had already implied: the age of automatic continental trade management is over. The agreement remains in force, but it is now under deliberate strategic review. Trade is being judged less by abstract efficiency and more by whether it strengthens industrial depth, energy security, and continental resilience.
Canada is now being forced to adjust.

The next round of U.S.–Canada trade talks should deepen integration where it already makes strategic sense, energy, critical minerals, power, and industrial inputs—while targeting the old protected zones of the Canadian economy where reciprocity with the United States still does not meaningfully exist: supply‑managed agriculture, softwood lumber, sheltered finance, and telecom. Canada’s dependence on U.S. downstream refining capacity for heavy crude shows how real continental interdependence already is, while its openness to subsidized Chinese EV imports underscores the same danger Krugman identified in Europe: allowing Chinese overcapacity to hollow out domestic industry.

Trump saw that first. He understood before most of the establishment that the global economy was shifting from efficiency to security, from comparative advantage in the abstract to productive capacity in the real world. Now even his critics are conceding the point. The only serious question left is whether governments are prepared to act on what Trump understood long before they did.

CORRUPTION? Three days after Mitch McConnell was found unconscious and hospitalized his wife, a private citizen, traveled to Beijing to meet with CCP leadership, including Chinese Vice President Han Zheng. Why is she meeting with the CCP? Why do it with her husband still hospitalized? What is really going on?
