Funny:

Its not though.

Instead of just updating the existing deal this whole thing is up for congressional review not just here but EVERYWHERE ELSE too!

Funnier:

What's great though is that the parts of NAFTA we didn't care for like Chapter 19 we are literally going to Highlight->Copy->Paste into this thing.

Funniest:

As former Atlanta Fed Chairman Jeff Rosensweig says:

"We have really hurt relationships with our major ally ... for the sake of a few gallons of milk."

If it was only about milk than why did Canada run to Washington aftet Trump signed a bilateral trade deal with Mexico?

Sissy Prime Minister Trudeau talked tough every time Trump mentioned NAFTA. Then came our deal with Mexico and Canada came running within days, just like any secondary 'ally' would.

Canada surrendered as did The EU, NATO, and soon, China.

Can't wait to tomorrow because Trump gets better every day.

Yes.

White House: President Donald J. Trump Secures A Modern, Rebalanced Trade Agreement with Canada and Mexico

None of it is interesting.

All the stuff at Canada would have been accomplished (and then some) if we had just stayed in TPP.

Well they had to rewrite the thing after we bailed and agreed in-principle in March.

3 of the necessary 6 have already ratified with 3 more expected this fall... so... way faster than this.

You've been a jerk off for over two years now ... and totally wrong on all your posts, predictions and comments.

I know I won't win any popularity contests on here, I know that. I just don't care because you've proven countless times you are a juvenile little twerp. Laugh your soft arse off all you wish with these silly gifs, whatever. Very childish but then again YOU ARE the lead child to all the simple minded Trump haters.

I'll stack my posts, predictions and commentary against yours any day of the week. On my worst day I've contributed more value to this site than many on here, ESPECIALLY you. And that also means posting in other threads on different subjects. For someone you yells how wildly read you are, your range of intellect is quite shallow. And I will not comment on your writing skills ... which lacks simple clarity to start.

You are the one who have contributed mostly zero value to this place. And I'm being generous.

You are the one that said Trump won't get foreign companies to relocate here. WRONG. You are the one that said trade deals with the EU, NATO, NAFTA, and So Korea would never happen. WRONG. You are the one that said earlier corrupt deals made by Congress with Lockheed and Boeing will not be renegotiated because Trump is clueless. Well, you were WRONG then too. You should have quit then when you were behind but stupidity knows no bounds.

You also are the one that said Trump's trade policies will kill the economy. WRONG.

You are the ignorant one, not even knowing that Congress is the allocator of funds for the Wall, etc. Call it a Trump failure if you want, be my guest. Only stupid people believe this.
