George Bush pushed NAFTA and I recall the trucks on our Interstates were as thick as they are today almost overnight.

Wasn’t NAFTA signed by the popular Mr. Bill? c. 1993

George Bush pushed NAFTA . . . .

Yes he did. So did his Boss.

This year, we have it within our power to take a major step toward a growing global economy and an expanding cycle of prosperity that reaches to all the free nations of this Earth. I'm speaking of the historic free trade agreement negotiated between our country and Canada. And I can also tell you that we're determined to expand this concept, south as well as north. Next month I will be traveling to Mexico, where trade matters will be of foremost concern. And over the next several months, our Congress and the Canadian Parliament can make the start of such a North American accord a reality. Our goal must be a day when the free flow of trade, from the tip of Tierra del Fuego to the Arctic Circle, unites the people of the Western Hemisphere in a bond of mutually beneficial exchange, when all borders become what the U.S.-Canadian border so long has been: a meeting place rather than a dividing line.

--Ronald Reagan, Address Before a Joint Session of Congress on the State of the Union, January 25, 1988.
