Quote

We have to fundamentally rethink our trade policy and make it work not for the CEOs of large corporations, but for working people. So, if Trump wants to develop a rational trade policy which demands corporations start investing in this country, rather than China, that's something that we can work on.

It means that the U.S. government represents the needs of all the people, not just the 1 percent and their lobbyists.
