19. These Deals Have A Problem
Fri Oct 24, 2025, 11:22 AM

They are static while commerce is dynamic.

The history is that Trump, in his first term cancelled NAFTA and signed a new agreement. Earlier this year he cancelled that agreement and signed a new agreement. He then canceled that agreement and was in talks for a replacement agreement and now walked out on those talks. At least that keeps the coverage of the Epstein tapes off the front page. Never mind how foolish and incompetent it makes him look.
