The article seemed coherent on a few points but is slightly contradictory. 
The author is suggesting that Trump ditching the TPP is a huge mistake yet claims Obama and Trudeau didn''t care much either. 
IMO, globalization as we know it, and represented by big money/celebrity love-ins like Davos, is likely finished. 
The core - the EU - will never be the same after the Brexit dust settles. 
But trade, which is really just globalization stripped of social justice adornment, is never finished, not when there's money to be made. 
The globalists aren't real happy about it hence the propaganda campaign. 
Without the EU,  lonely and  isolated Britain will wither and die.
Isolationist America will be hiding under the covers while China ascends to dominance. 
Oh please.
