I'm of at least two minds on the present international unilateral trade rebalancing. On the one hand, just like the immigration issue, reasonable people have been saying for some time that a disproportionate amount of the wealth of the new world was going to the powers of the old world (which, in fairness, was how the whole thing started off), but the abrupt and unilateral nature of the rebalancing doesn't inspire much faith in the concert of nations that was supposed to have been achieved after the the last great war.
On a different level of the question, I'm a bit concerned that all the nations and powers of the earth are now coming to a particular person, hat in hand. And the present executive doesn't exactly see himself as primarily being an officer of the republic. Power gained can then be used in the world, both domestically and internationally. I continue to think that the Framwers' vision for the Senate might have been a more useful counterbalance in times such as these.
