Trump's argument for this restructuring is that for the last 80 years, the 'guy in Peoria' (ordinary American workers) has been the one paying the costs of globalization through hollowed-out industries and worsened living standards, while other nations got a free security ride; now it's time for those nations to pay, not for Americans to accept further burdens like raising the retirement age to 75 or cutting Social Security
