The White House and members of Congress are in consultations over a slew of new bilateral trade deals, chief White House strategist Steve Bannon said today, adding that President Trump’s withdrawal of the United States from the Trans-Pacific Partnership was a monumental historic event.
“The mainstream media don’t get this but we’re already working in consultation with the Hill, people are starting to think through a whole raft of amazing and innovative bilateral trading relationships with people that will reposition America in the world as a fair trading nation and start to bring jobs, high value-added manufacturing jobs back to the United States of America,” Bannon said at the Conservative Policy Action Conference, sitting next to White House Chief of Staff Reince Preibus.
Bannon also listed the withdrawal from TPP as one of the most important actions Trump has taken in his roughly first month in office.
