This is the first election in my memory to pit a globalist (Hillary Clinton) against a nationalist (Donald Trump).
Clinton is a free-trader from way back (her husband signed the North American Free Trade Agreement into law and she supports the Trans-Pacific Partnership); she supports international institutions such as the United Nations, the International Court of Criminal Justice, and the International Monetary Fund; she's an advocate of open borders; and she is in bed with international bankers and other powerful cosmopolitan types.
Trump, by contrast, is opposed to free trade (he wants to protect American industries, workers, and communities from unfair foreign competition) and wants to halt or slow immigration, especially from the Islamic world (which is exporting terrorism). Everyone knows about Trump's intention to build a wall on our southern border so that immigration from Mexico can be controlled, and everyone by now has heard the slogan, "Make America Great Again."
Come November, we'll see which ideology prevails. I'm rooting for nationalism.
