    I'm not "looking for someone to blame". By that notion, the establishment looks to Russia(and at least pretends to give a damn about China but not really.). No, it's more I care for my country and the people in my country than the rest of the world. If the world cooperates with America, America will cooperate with the world.

    But if the world doesn't cooperate with us, I'm not taking that lightly.

    US autoworkers make twice that on average, and this improves Mexican industry, which also benefits the US.

    That said, NPR says the average mexican autoworker made 3.14 an hour prior to this deal.

    Also, the mexican autoworkers are skilled, minimum wage US jobs not so much.

    Where did you get your stats?

    Trump was asked for his agenda in the second term. The man couldn't answer that ****ing softball of a question and you think he just needs 4 more years to do **** that he could barely even start (3 miles of new border wall and a phase one trade deal with china)?

    If only that USMCA could do something about the pandemic that has killed 130,000+ Americans or reduced the unemployment rate to one less than the current high of around 13.3%, then trump might have something to crow about.

    We were told the china virus could kill 2 million. Luckily Trump shut down travel early.

    Sadly, the states that tend to have the most deaths were blue states.

    Newsome seeded San Quentin with the ill, it was just reported.

    This virus can still kill 2 million because Trump is such a massive ****-up. We are literally hitting brand new all-time records for single day case counts.

    But sure, you feel free to credit Trump for saving theoretical lives and blame everyone else for the loss of actual American lives if you think that bit of messaging is going to convince someone else.

    The CDC rapidly revised down their estimates, more in line with REAL data.

    You are spouting the estimates from late march.

    Now lets get back to the thread topic.

    Its tragic, not unlike the most violent cities in America being run by dems.

    For some reason, the media and lefties never wan't to discuss that.

    The CDC used other modelers for their estimates and those estimates have been rapidly rising because of the latest REAL data. And it was you who brought up the 2 million estimate, not me.

    As for the thread topic, again, I just wish that the USMCA did a single thing in regards to the 11.1% unemployment rate and the 130,000 dead Americans.

    working on it...there are more then one way to pay. Trump got them to agree to pay auto workers more. Which will create less of an incentive for companies to move there, thus increasing b tax revenue here

    Yeah I've seen that, but not one real proposal for this brand new shiny bigger and better Healthcare plan.
    And then trying to get rid of it during a pandemic ???

    If I were in Congress, I'd have a national health care plan on the floor to be debated. Although it would be meaningless to have it on the floor with Speaker Pelosi, who is singlehandedly, the greatest problem in Congress today.

    The thing we can all hope and pray for, is that Pelosi is either defeated in November, the Democrats lose the house, or they get some sense to go in a different direction for House Speaker in the new Congress.

    This one... really... cringe worthy. But just for kicks, provide an example or two of who Pelosi "cleaned it up".....

    With Trump, the trade balance has never been so negative.

    Just as **** as the collusion, the obstruction, the racism, the pandemic, the Russian spying, the lack of family values, the police brutality, the opioid crisis, the failure of public schools, the decay of infrastructure, the health care, the black murder rate, the terrorism and now the Russian bounties that you blame Trump for. BTW, what ever happened to Beto and Buttigieg?

    LOL you think insuring Mexican workers getting paid more helped America in the deal? Environmental protection helped guarantee 2 bill in ag purchases? You guys are hilarious. No doubt Pelosi and dems take credit for this deal but hey what else you got, you can't take credit for burning your lib cities down, you won't take credit for the anarchists and you damn sure can't take credit for the economic boom we're seeing coming off this pandemic.

    There is a fairly large movement among Canadian consumers, now, regarding 'Buy Canadian'. So the exports can go there - but for how long if consumers aren't purchasing our goods?
