Instead they use it to attack him (and the other haters just gobble it up) before the final deals are in place?
I mean, if at the end of this we come away with a few tarriffs in situations where people are clearly trading unfairly and/or countries like Mexico, Canada, and China come to the table to renegotiate aspects of NAFTA and other deals to our advantage, the result would be brilliant.
I still don't see anything to complain about.
I think everything is going great so far.
We finally have someone in office that's not bent over taking it where the sun doesn't shine on trade. So far nothing out of line has been done and he has them all talking. If he moves any of these deals a little to our advantage, that's massively better than anyone has done after decades of utter stupidity taking it in the butt.
