发帖数: 42116 | 1 Trump declared that the two orders would start a "great revival" for U.S.
manufacturing, repeating his campaign message that trade pacts have caused
factory jobs to flow overseas.
One order calls for the completion of a large-scale report that will track
trade deficits country-by-country and product-by-product, while the other
would improve the collection of duties on imports.
"Nobody's ever made bad trade deals like our country's made," the president
said. "Thousands of factories have been stolen from our country."
The president then allowed for remarks by other administration officials.
Among those in attendance were Vice President Mike Pence, Commerce Secretary
Wilbur Ross, Peter Navarro, the director of the White House National Trade
Council, and Steve Bannon, the president's chief strategist.
But after the remarks, Trump walked out of the Oval Office without signing
either of the orders.
A White House official said he signed the measures later. |
