Trump is not the only one ever to be in bankruptcy court. The Clintons were supposedly flat ass broke after wild Bill got done being Prez. Well, according to $Hillary anyway.

Both Trump and Sanders contend that USA’s chronic annual trade deficits of goods are due to our poorly negotiated trade agreements.
Through less than honest means it is possible but certainly less feasible to induce agreement from others for what they (usually correctly) perceive to be contrary to their own best interests.
Improving our negotiating skills will not entirely or almost entirely eliminate USA’s chronic annual trade deficits of goods.
It is more feasible to change the laws and regulations governing our global trade policy in order to induce others to behave in manners that are no longer detrimental to our own economy.
USA’s adoption of the trade policy described by Wikipedia’s “Import Certificates” article would entirely or almost entirely eliminate USA’s chronic annual trade deficits of goods, increase our GDP and numbers of jobs.
For a remedy, google Wikipedia’s “Import Certificates” article.
