MAGA. I love how he’s rebranding this as USMCA.

It’s a delight to have a non-politician and a very effective negotiator.

I think other nations are taking notice.

Do we have a post on FR about the Chinese reducing tariffs?

Mexico and Canada are not known for their cheese. This was about our auto, and steel industry.

You don't think Trump asked for more? You never start at your own bottom line, and I never read his book. He got what he got at this point and it's still an improvement.

That "giant sucking sound" that Perot was right about has already reversed since Trump was President Elect. Pres. Trump is methodically making it clear to the World that the USA is no longer its piggy bank. Even the NATO countries are committed to paying more for their own protection.

Watch what he does with China, the second largest economy in the World. Any improvement there would solidify our economic prowess for decades. Of course, unless the socialists get back in power and screw up all these advances.

Don’t need to have a trade deal with India as much as we need to end H1B and end the ability of spouses to work prior to getting green card on their own. You close that and India will PAY us to buy our products … the biggest import from India is PEOPLE.

Here was the Nobel Prize winning Paul Krugman writing in the NYT. What an idiot! (funny to read now.) https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/projects/cp/opinion/election-night-2016

“So we are very probably looking at a global recession, with no end in sight. I suppose we could get lucky somehow. But on economics, as on everything else, a terrible thing has just happened.”

Donald Trump is such a blessing for this great nation! I think I need a framed portrait like all those deceived catholics did for Kennedy in the 60s.

How often will this guy be wrong until he shuts his mouth and fades away? Wasn't he one of the most vocal in saying the markets and GDP would fall if Trump was elected. Can you get anymore wrong?

Didn't he also support the Democrats in pressuring banks/mortgage lenders to make down-payment free loans to those who couldn't even afford the monthly payments?

We all know the defaults on those loans was the beginning of the 2008 recession with its domino effect. Another epic failure by the liberals which I now call socialists. Bleeding hearts bleed other peoples' wallets.

Smiling from ear to ear. Four more years!

Maris Ogg, president at Tower Bridge Advisors. "It looks like this trade deal will benefit both countries, but I wouldn't call it a great win for the Trump administration."

Notice the ONLY quote in the article is an anti-Trump quote. Of course.

Canada is weird. Along with what you said, they have a national law in television programming that requires 2 hours of Canadian-produced tv programs for every 1 hour of programming that comes from another country.

So, for every hour of HGTV aired by a Canadian network, they must run 2 hours of Canadian-only material. weird!

Trump will drop out of the race any day now, ya know...
