Trump has suggested a global trade coalition
Republican Senator Ben Sasse from Nebraska said Trump has deputized Lighthizer and Kudlow to review the Trans-Pacific Partnership, something he campaigned heavily against.
Lately Trump has talked about forming a trade block against China, which is exactly what the TPP is.
The problem is that TPP is going to open up markets and supply chains for many of the participants. There's a major first-mover advantage and US companies will be left out.
Update: Evidently Trump "looked at Kudlow and said 'go get it done'" on TPP.
