This is the moment when we must build on the wealth that open markets have created, and share its benefits more equitably. Trade has been a cornerstone of our growth and global development. But we will not be able to sustain this growth if it favors the few, and not the many.

Our ability to create jobs, our future growth, is built on the free market. It's built on open borders.

We've got people, our friends and neighbors, who are losing their jobs, factories being closed. We have to get America moving again.

If we truly want to achieve lasting economic growth, we need our businesses to do more business - and we need them to do it in America.

We aren't leveraging this great economic engine, the strongest economy in the world. And yet we have this totally weak response. We import $500 billion a year more in products than we export.

We no longer have a free market in the United States, we have a government controlled free market.

Our trade opens to all the world.

The American free market system is the greatest engine for prosperity and opportunity that the world has ever seen. Freedom works.

We Americans look at the last 300 years of history, and we basically see a world that's getting better and better. The rule of freedom expands. The economy develops. We have risen to become the world's greatest power.

But the - look, I think that this - the United States of America is still the most powerful economy in the world. It is an incredible engine for creativity and innovation. And it has the most - smartest, most effective workforce in the world. So we have a lot going for us, in spite of the fractiousness of our politics.
