Trump’s protectionism continues long history of US rejection of free trade
The Conversation (2018)
  • Giulio M Gallarotti
Abstract
Are Trump's protectionist trade policies really so radically different from past administrations?
Absolutely not. The fact is the U.S. has never been a truly free trade country – one with virtually no barriers to trade with other nations. The idea that the U.S. ever was is a myth.
