The majority (well, technically a minority whos votes counted more) just voted for protectionism. If Trump wants to be more than a 1 term president he needs to at least make it look like he's following through. This is issue #1 for a huge chunk of his support base.

I don't think Trump's alternative was any less protectionist. Not all issues on agenda are equally important for Trump or his supporters. A decision on SC judges for example will be a cakewalk for trump but any decision on trade or immigration would be much more muddy in my opinio
