As liberals engage in revisionist history to change anything they find uncomfortable with their party (slavery, Jim Crowe laws, opposing integration, NAFTA, China trade policy, eliminating red lining, preventing Jewish refugees from coming to the US during ww2, putting US japanese citizens in concentration camps, ect...) , they are often confused by liberal myth and reality.
As a result, MOST liberals here think that George Bush signed the NAFTA and China trade agreements. Of course, he did not- Bill Clinton did.
Bill Clinton, like Obama and Biden, was one of the most destructive presidents in US history, destroying the US manufacturing sector, ushering in the emergence of China as the new world enemy, and nearly destroying our banking sector by mandating the elimination of "red lining" in issuing home loans to unqualified buyers.
Of course, all of these policies have caused lasting, severe damage to the nation. Liberals, of course, love Bill Clinton for it, as they also share the goals of destroying the nation. Not only was Clinton destructive in policy, he was a serial rapist and pedophile (but libs are okay with it).
Ever wonder why libs still support Biden? Just look at their history and the explanation is clear!
In so doing, he will move even closer to the conservative vision of a hemisphere-wide free trade area.
Long-Standing Support for Free Trade with Mexico. Ronald Reagan first proposed a free trade agreement between the U.S. and Mexico in his 1980 presidential campaign.
Looking to the Future. President Clinton should ride the free trade momentum that conservatives have given him and reaffirm his support for free trade agreements with other Latin American countries, namely Chile, Argentina, and Venezuela.
The NAFTA win is a great victory for free trade conservatives. It was they who first championed the notion of free trade with Mexico. And it is they who will carry the banner of free trade in the future -- a banner under which even Bill Clinton now marches.
The “revisionist history” is Republicans now pretending like they didn’t want it. No shortage of examples of Republicans calling our domestic manufacturing labor unions greedy/lazy/etc and praising free trade.

Bingo! Reps to you.
Not that I disagree with the Reagan admin on this point, mind you.
NAFTA has been a successful treaty, but there were some trade-offs. At a national level it was beneficial. However, it did harm some businesses. The USMCA is an updated version of the same treaty.

Give me a break.
NAFTA and China trade policies were passed under Clinton and they have had a permanent, damaging effect on the US economy.
You can see the major spike in "income disparity" after the passage of NAFTA and China trade policies. All of the things liberals purport to hate were dramatically increased by the actions of the liberal icon- Bill Clinton.
Since we are reaching back decades to point fingers, I'm sure we will no longer see accusations of "TDS" (about a currently very loudly active person who was only president two years ago anyway)...right?
