  7. The move provides fresh evidence of Trump’s intention to transform #GlobalTrade, despite numerous #court challenges & the protests of #US #consumers & businesses that have been stuck with higher #tax bills. Over the past 17 months, the #Trump admin has cycled through #trade #law after trade law as it tries to build a system to shield the US #economy from foreign #competition [it’s called a #FreeMarket, pretty freaking American]
