"In countries throughout the world, mass migration has strained domestic resources, increased violence and other crime, weakened social cohesion, distorted labor markets, and undermined national security. The era of mass migration must end. Border security is the primary element of national security," the document reads.
The blueprint emphasizes the dangers that come with uncontrolled migration, such as terrorism, drugs, espionage and human trafficking.
While the document frames border security as a key priority on the U.S.'s shores, it also identifies another threat from abroad, one that the administration asserts will be key in shaping the future of the U.S. and the world: China's bid to dominate globally.
The blueprint highlights Trump's work to reverse "more than three decades of mistaken American assumptions about China," particularly the idea that by opening U.S. markets to China, Washington could ensure that Beijing would join "the so-called 'rules-based international order.'" Rather than ensuring American influence over China, these policies enriched Beijing and allowed it to use its wealth and power "to its considerable advantage," the document notes.

The administration predicts in the outline that a mutually beneficial relationship with China could send the U.S. economy from its present $30 trillion to $40 trillion in the 2030s.
This strategic posture towards China also requires the involvement of U.S. allies. One idea put forward in the document is having the U.S. work with treaty allies who can add another $35 trillion in economic power to combat "predatory economic practices."
The document also calls on the U.S. to "encourage Europe, Japan, Korea, Australia, Canada, Mexico and other prominent nations in adopting trade policies that help rebalance China’s economy toward household consumption, because Southeast Asia, Latin America and the Middle East cannot alone absorb China’s enormous excess capacity."

Beyond economic policies, the document outlines the U.S. strategy when it comes to deterring military threats, specifically touching on the global importance of the South China Sea. While the blueprint states that deterring a conflict over Taiwan is a priority, it also clarifies that the U.S. is not changing its stance toward the country, which often faces threats from China.
"Preventing conflict requires a vigilant posture in the Indo-Pacific, a renewed defense industrial base, greater military investment from ourselves and from allies and partners, and winning the economic and technological competition over the long term," the document says.
The 33-page document outlines region-specific strategies as well as the overall goal of putting U.S. interest before those of other nations. It also encourages more careful involvement abroad, while acknowledging that total U.S. withdrawal from the world stage would not be possible.
