I don't think there really is a plan. Trump seems to believe that all multinational trade deals are designed to screw the USA so just break them all. He's so confident in this assumption he has no issue making up false data to justify his behavior.
While there are some legitimate issues to address I really don't think he understands how the global economy works and the potential damage to US interests. Not sure he really cares though either, seems like as long as he's wheeling and dealing and the fans are hooked on the spectacle he thinks he's winning.
