Again with the "maybe"s.

Show me something that has happened. Factories opened? Jobs created? massive purchases that were actually purchased?

Come on, guys. Surely there's something.

You really need to watch FOX news... you sound less and less informed every day....

Show me how he did this. I know he scalped them for some stack to get his approval.

Per AI"
The 2017 United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) is generally viewed as a qualified success, particularly when considering its role in stimulating regional trade and investment, and fostering the stability of North American supply chains.

Ouch.

He renamed NAFTA. Nothing much changed.

And now he calls it a "terrible deal" and loudly wonders what kind of fool would have signed it.

You think Cook is going to renege? Why?

I think they all will. This crap is just placeholders until the adults are back in charge.

It's a maybe. How many of tRump's previous "deals" have actually happened?

Nobody can seem to come up with even one.

NAFTA was a terrible deal, but this is completely different from NAFTA.

Per AI:

The U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) is different from its predecessor, the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), as it modernized the agreement for a 21st-century economy with updated provisions on digital trade, intellectual property, and stronger rules for the automotive sector, while also enhancing labor and environmental protections in Mexico.

Here are some of the key differences:

• The U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) is different from its predecessor, the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), as it modernized the agreement for a 21st-century economy with updated provisions on digital trade, intellectual property, and stronger rules for the automotive sector, while also enhancing labor and environmental protections in Mexico.
  • Automotive Sector:
    • Rules of Origin: The USMCA requires 75% of a vehicle's parts to be made in North America, an increase from NAFTA's 62.5% requirement.
      
      
    • Labor Value Content: A new rule mandates that 40-45% of a vehicle's components must be made by workers earning at least $16 per hour.
    • Labor Protections: USMCA strengthens labor rights in Mexico, including enabling workers to organize and bargain collectively, and allows for inspections to enforce labor standards.
      
      
    • Environmental Protections: The agreement includes stronger environmental standards that were not a significant part of NAFTA.
  • • Digital Trade:
      • New Digital Provisions: The USMCA addresses the digital economy with new rules for things like cross-border data flows and digital products, a topic that wasn't covered in NAFTA.
      • Extended Copyright:The agreement extends copyright protections from 50 years after an author's death to 70 years under the USMCA, with other increases for different property types.
        • Dairy Market: The USMCA provides U.S. dairy farmers with greater access to the Canadian market.
          
          
        • Limited Investor Rights: The USMCA removes the NAFTA-era investor-to-government lawsuit mechanism in most sectors, reducing the ability of investors to sue governments over regulations.

President Trump and I absolutely love winning. lol.

There are plenty. If there is none, the market would crash by now. Oh wait, leftists have been screaming the market will crash when Trump got elected and Tesla will go bankrupt.

Maxwell says she never saw Trump do what Clinton did....

 

[initforme]

Dumbass! The point is to have things made here. Derp!

For a big time higher wage for the same exact product.

How about he Abraham accords? If he had a D next to his name he would have been given the Nobel.

You're opposed to Americans making higher wages?

 

[initforme]

You're opposed to Americans making higher wages?

Not at all in fact i am aproponent of at least double the wages made here for the same exact product, if not triple.

• Per AI
  • One of the largest deals reported involved an agreement with the European Union where the EU committed to purchasing $750 billion in U.S. energy and making new investments of $600 billion in the United States by 2028.
  • A strategic trade and investment agreement with Japan involved a commitment to invest $550 billion to rebuild and expand core American industries.
  • The Trump administration also formalized trade agreements with the United Kingdom and China, with the latter significantly lowering tariff rates between the two countries, according to CNN.
  • Other trade agreements, though potentially not as large in scale, were announced with countries like Vietnam, Indonesia, the Philippines, and South Korea, typically involving commitments to purchase more American products and make investments in U.S. businesses.
• Investment Commitments:
  • Beyond specific trade agreements, several countries reportedly made substantial investment commitments to the U.S. during and since Trump's term:
    • United Arab Emirates committed to investing $1.4 trillion over the next decade.
    • Qatar committed to a $1.2 trillion economic exchange.
    • Japan announced a $1 trillion investment in the U.S.
    • Saudi Arabia committed to investing $600 billion in the U.S. over the next four years

Ouch!

This is what happens when you let AI do your thinking.

Announcing a trade agreement is an entirely different thing thn actually making one.

For instance. The EU “commitment” to buy $750 billion of American natural gas is entirely unrealistic. It’s smoke and mirrors.

The EU’s ‘fantasy’ $750B energy promise to Trump

Technical issues, limited U.S. supplies and the EU’s minimal control over imports render the pledge infeasible, experts say.

World leaders have learned that Trump doesn’t care whether any of this is real, as long as he can tell the TV cameras that it is. he knows his base doesn’t read, never fact checks,never looks behind the curtain.

100% tariffs are going to hammer US consumers. Counter tariffs will hammer US exports.

You really want that to come true, don't you?

No. I did not vote for Trump. You did.

Why would Tim Cook give us smoke and mirrors? Why would the EU lie about buying natural gas?

 

[TimFitz]

Why would Tim Cook give us smoke and mirrors? Why would the EU lie about buying natural gas?

Because Trump was going to sell you a Trump phone (made in China), and cook paid him his tribute. He promised to invest with Corning glass to make more Gorilla glass for his tablets and phones, which Corning already supplies.

The E U commitment was smoke and mirrors. I already explained thst.

Making Trump look good for his uncritical Fox audience is the only goal.

Once you’ve given him his phot opp, you can pretty much do what you want.

His followers will have forgotten the promise in a day or two. And he will have moved onto another trick in his bag.
