President Donald Trump is expected to sign an executive order as early as Monday stating his intention to renegotiate the free trade agreement between the United States, Canada and Mexico, a White House official told NBC News.

Eliminating the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), which was crafted by former President Bill Clinton and enacted in 1994, was a frequent Trump campaign promise.

Only to leftist loons would this be considered "bad." And if Trump had gone full throttle on the issue, they'd be complaining about how abrasive and undiplomatic he was being

Failed banns, failed bills, attacking his own party.

Now Backs down on NAFTA,


i could post many more broken promises and lies but why bother, we all know Trump would say anything to get elected because he said it on camera....



sold out our rivers, sold out our rural communities, sold out moms, sold out our privacy.

abandoned the public on FTC, FCC, FEC. all vital all ducked because Trump does not give a poo about those who voted for him.

no fiduciary rule. no opt out, no cable box. Trump is a taker, and a liar. He lied for votes and he knows he is a one shot deal so he does not care about his support levels, he does not care what you think he does not even try to hide his wholesale plundering of our nation. Or his blatant nepotism.


Trump is all out of ducks to give, his family, his cohorts are stuffing their pockets as fast as they can. Trumps own son publicly stated money is pouring in , deals and offers all over the place. They are looting, like they putin.


WOW- is this one among many things that 45 has done just in his first few weeks as president? He's done more things in the first few weeks as president than all the other presidents combined. The leftist heads are exploding!

Have I left out any remarks/explanations/excuses of the Trump supporters to this news?

Links? My understanding all along was that he was going to renegotiate NAFTA. I found one article that said he'd "renegotiate or eliminate" NAFTA, but dozens of others, including his website, mention simply "renegotiating" NAFTA. The funny thing is the D's have been calling for renegotiation of NAFTA for years & it took a Republican to do it for them.

nope and nope.

Trump foolishly hashed together a grossly incompetent ban of muslims, that pretty much ensures he will not get anything through in that area. He has done zero on vetting because Obama already raised the bar so high anything is childish and counter productive.

Regulations, are the backbone of commerce the idea that applying a ratio will make things better is as simplistic and the EO itself and was not even intended to work, merely to appease his core.

frankly you can support trump all the way to the bottom, but on your way just watch as whatever wealth you have managed to gain is transferred to those at the top. it has already begun.

Oddly enough when the rich get richer so do I. When the rich get poorer so do I.

Exactly right. If Trump had eliminated NAFTA, which he couldn't legally do, he'd have been demonized by the D's. If he'd negotiated hard, he'd have been demonized by the D's & now that he negotiated diplomatically, he's demonized by the D's. When Trump suggested we might just ignore the WTO, he was demonized by the D's. Now that he's working within the WTO, he's demonized by the D's. It's almost like no one should even care what the D's say, because they're just playing partisan games.

Therefore Trump is an actual demon.
