A big part of Donald Trump’s political identity has centered on his promises to shake up the United States’ role in the world and reject the free-trade agreements that he has called “a disaster” for American workers.
Trade is not a primary concern for most American voters: Of the seven topics CNN asked about in a recent poll, voters were least likely to cite trade as important for their decision in 2020. When Trump took office, polls showed that Americans were broadly sympathetic to his calls for a rethinking of trade policy. In January 2017, a Gallup poll found that 71% of respondents nationwide said that “promoting favorable trade policies for the U.S. in foreign markets” should be a very important policy goal for the new administration.
For the first time, in a remarkable show of bipartisan consensus, 7 in 10 respondents in each party this year said trade was more of an opportunity for the United States than a threat. But Lydia Saad, a senior editor at Gallup, resisted equating support for trade with opposition to Trump’s positions.
Democrats have become far more likely than Republicans to see NAFTA positively. In 2017, Gallup found that 67% of Democrats viewed the agreement favorably, versus just 22% of Republicans. In the 1990s and early 2000s, immediately after the agreement was passed, there was no notable partisan difference on this question.
Fake goals, just a used car salesman. People fall for this guys nonsense like Trump University.
