Donald Trump's nationalistic philosophy is to make America same as it is in past which is

immigration, reform of individual and corporate tax reform, deconstruction of the Dodd Frank
wall street reform and consumer protection Act and also nullify the Patients protection and
Affordable care Act (Rodrik, 2014).
Taken Donald Trump economic policy for example of nationalistic philosophy is trade
protectionism which refers to the policy give to protect domestic industries against foreign
competitors which done through tariffs, subsidies, import quotas or other barriers placed on
importing foreign products or services. US president Donald Trump has jolted the trade
globalization foundation by creating barriers on trading or imposing tariffs for EU, Canada,
Mexico and China, from where billions dollars goods and services are being imported. And it
leads to trade war in which one country attack another country by the help of imposing taxes and
quotes on each another.
P2 Economic policy that impact on China and its proportion of export
Economic policy which impact on China and its exportation is trade protectionism which
means try to use barriers like tariffs to enhance domestic country industry and protect it from
foreign competitors. US president Trump impose tariff on steel and aluminium trading against
China, he announced 25% tariff on steels and 10% on aluminium which impact on the China
economy and its exportation both get affected in negative form due to it. Trump take this
decision to cut off the trade deficit with China, trade deficit means difference between buying of
one country from another country and compare it with sells to that country.
