If you are anti NAFTA but pro free market, rethink things. NAFTA is free market.
Same with America first. Free market is cheapest first. Period end of sentance. America will be far behind what is cheapest in terms of priority.
Anti corruption? Again forget the free market. Corruption is one of the ultimate expressions of the free market as the government is for sale to the highest bidder.
Other countries are taking up English, are bilingual. What's wrong with learning Spanish
I don't get what's wrong with learning Spanish either. Granted, when it comes to conducting business, foreigners should be able to speak English, even if it's broken.
All that said, Spanish has been spoken in the states longer than English and English is not the official language of the U.S. USA has no official language.
So, why don’t the tens of millions of Hispanics living in the United States learn English and make an honest attempt to speak English outside of their homes?
That is central to American values and culture.
As long as one can speak English when talking with me, I honestly don't care what other language they speak publicly or privately.
I'll say again though, that being that English is the most widely spoken language in the U.S., those from other nations should be able to utilize English when conducting business in most settings.

I don't laugh at anyone or criticize anyone speaking in broken English. At least they're trying to speak English. I sometimes wonder if some people continue to speak their native language rather than English, despite being able to speak English, because they fear being criticized for speaking "broken English".
I remember in elementary school, there was a kid in class who basically spoke no English in the beginning. Another classmate basically translated for him. I remember both of us reading an encyclopedia in together. It turns out, he was learning English nicely. He was just kind of quiet. I wonder if he feared anyone making fun of his English speaking.
I don't mind learning another language. I took on French in high school (and part of college). I still try to find people to speak French with today. I have also tried to learn a bit of other languages. French remains the foreign language I know best.
I also want to mention Louisiana. French and Spanish were spoken in Louisiana long before English was. Up to the 1930s, there were places in Louisiana where people didn't speak any English. There were some places where only French or Spanish were spoken.
Few people know about the Islenos (Spaniards from the Canary Islands) who migrated to Louisiana a long time ago.

As a side note, I've met people from other countries, who were able to speak English, even though they were born, raised, and still technically held residency in countries where English isn't spoken. In many countries, English is taught as a foreign language.

The problem is when one is forced to Spanish due to the massive illegal immigration problem that we have from Spanish speakers. There is no reason for native English speakers to learn Spanish or any other foreign language in this country unless they work in the tourist industry or have a job dealing with foreign countries. I'll be damned if I will learn Spanish to accommodate these illegal invaders. Most Hispanic-Americans know English so we already have our national de facto language to communicate in. By the way, more than half of our states have made English their "official" language.
Some of the first European languages to be spoken in the U.S. were English, Dutch, French, Spanish, and Swedish. So English was spoken as much as Spanish, etc. was.
