You are again mistaking "American liberalism" with "neoliberalism."
You are correct that economic globalization is part of "neoliberalism", but it is not part of "American liberalism." Now, you are certainly correct that Democrats espouse economic globalization, but so do economic conservatives (who are distinct from populist conservatives). This is reflective of the fact that the Democrats have drifted closer to the center over the past few decades, and are now really a centrist party, possibly center-left.
But support for unions is not neoliberalism. Support for a higher minimum wage is not neoliberalism.
You also have to be careful about the term "neoconservative." It is typically used only to describe a specific hawkish foreign policy philosophy, and has little to do with economics (and typically doesn't have anything to do with trade - but this is a blurry line).
