America must protect our national security – that must be the first priority. But beyond our borders, America needs a strong, prepared, and focused military to keep us secure at home and protect our allies from the threat of invasion from communist, dictatorial regimes like China and Russia.
America is safer and more secure when we have an engaged and strong presence in global affairs. In the face of international conflict, America has a choice – to lead or retreat. In stark contrast to our former president, President Trump has chosen to lead.
The United States relies on global trade and strong supply chains to meet domestic demand and boost American production, but one nation China has manipulated America’s economy to its advantage, undermining American businesses, consumers, and national security. China exploits loopholes in our trade laws and has attempted to gain a chokehold on American ports and foreign ones like the Panama Canal. Their actions are not an accident, but a deliberate attempt to grow their influence and dominance. The Chinese Communist Party is not our friend.
