USMCA Replaces NAFTA as Trump Delivers on One of Biggest Promises

Kudo's to Trump for keeping his promise to Americans with the USMCA.

This is another step to assure a robust economy that benefits working Americans, consumers, and our closest neighbors in North America.

I think peace and prosperity is a very effective contrast to the violence and policies of poverty we see pushed by the left including several top dems.

 

Just think of all the common sense things that could have been accomplished if Trump wasn't fighting jackasses from both sides of the isle. Instead, the Repubtards couldn't pull a wet string out of a cat's ass and the Democrats have been full blast Orange Man Bad, impeach the m'fer, Russia Russia Russia, coup attempt 1,2,3 every since November 2016.

It's damn pathetic.

If Trump can get re-elected, manage to get the Wall finished, and deal with trade with China.....he will go down as one of the greatest in history.

If Biden gets elected, after 4 years of total liberal insanity, Trump will get elected again assuming he still has his wits about him (as opposed to dementia joe), and he'll get everything done then.

If not, I'll have another home somewhere else.

 

Over six years? Oh be still my heart!
But Mexico sent him a tank you for having the car companies give their workers a raise.
It's a shame he couldn't do that for Lordstown.

 

The more complex auto work is done in the US.

Even democrats supported this, in case you missed it.

 

After dragging Nancy Pelosi screaming and kicking. She delayed the vote for MONTHS, MONTHS. I really do think the US House, to start healing it we need a new speaker.

 

You got that right.

Most US manufacturing jobs lost to technology, not trade

Yes, a double nothing burger.

 

She cleaned NAFTA 2.0 up to her standards, from no standards...

Congrats Speaker Pelosi....

 

promises made promises kept!

 

She didn't do crap, and it's not NAFTA 2.0. It's the USMCA. I wish I were in California to be able to run against Pelosi, as it stood if I were elected to Congress, I'd ask to run for the speaker position in Congress. I can get the bills across, I can work with Mitch McConnell and Chuck Schumer. I can get it done.

 

But unions, wage laws and regulations only accelerates technology.

 

A modest increase of jobs, 176,000 over six years and a GDP increase of 0.35% --- I am so impressed!!!

Trumpsters really know how to lower the bar to play political Limbo for the Don.

 

Shall we lower the minimum wage?
Let's ask those guys in the mid west.

 

No, we play hardball and FORCE China to up its wages to the rest of the world's standards. And we penalize corporations for shifting their jobs overseas, by not only imposing an import tax but taxing them as though they are an American company.

 

A lot of Americans are hurting right now, because of the china virus.

This is just one more tool to help the economy-and thats a good thing.

Trump kept his promise to Americans.

 

Let's talk about the minimum wage. Don't the Democrats want $15 bucks to be the minimum? Isn't that just wage protectionism? I hear all these Democrats yammering on about Trump being a protectionist when it comes to trade....the Democrats definitely don't mind exporting jobs.....but damn the hypocrisy when you let the jobs go overseas, import 30 million illegals and then bitch about minimum wages.

When you vote for open borders and unfair trade deals with China, you get what you get. Don't cry about protectionism and then want your wages protected.

 

The number one beneficiary of the agreement are the Mexican auto workers who will see a huge hourly pay increase to put them close to American and Canadian auto workers.

 

Its remarkable to me that dems talk about a 15 dollar/hr wage while importing people who will work for far less.

 

Yeah, keep believing that all the while lowering the bar for him. Can you actually get lower than this?

 

Yeah. Lets nuke 'em.

Not very American.

 

That post is pretty hard to respond to since you just wrapped up all your hatred and blamed in on a minimum wage that hasn't happened.

 

The results will be very American, even if the practice is not our "norm". Authoritarianism has appealed to me more and more, as the answer to our problems.

 

Yet you think Trump did a good job by raising it to $16 for Mexican autoworkers. Next you will be wondering why American auto companies aren't making any money.

 

WASHINGTON, Feb. 26, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- American voters support Congress passing the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement by a nearly four-to-one margin, according to a poll released today by the Pass USMCA Coalition.

The national survey, conducted by Morning Consult, surveyed 1,995 people from January 29 to February 1, 2019. Survey results have a margin of error of +/- 2 percent.

The poll comes three months after President Donald Trump, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, and former Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto signed USMCA. The 116th Congress is expected to vote on the agreement this year.

"Americans rely on strong North American trade relations for a stable workforce and economy," said former Congressman Joe Crowley, honorary co-chairman of the Pass USMCA Coalition. "USMCA will promote job growth across industries and expand opportunities for American workers."

The majority of voters (51 percent) polled want Congress to pass USMCA, compared to only 14 percent who oppose approval of the deal.

Support of a new deal has only risen since Obama was POTUS.

 

Ah, another disgruntled guy looking for someone else to blame.
