Nothing you stated is necessarily incorrect; however, it should be noted that while Bush, Sr. negotiated and signed the agreement, the President who signed the NAFTA Implementation Act was Clinton in December 1993 (after Congress approved NAFTA a month earlier.) I've always viewed NAFTA as a Bush/Clinton tag team kinda thing. Bush provided the framework and Clinton put it into practice. https://www.congress.gov/crs-product/R42965#:~:text=The NAFTA Implementation Act was,103-182).

In Chiang Mai, business as usual in my regular places except the edibles are no longer visible/displayed.

....OR, it's a fictitious medical malady contrived by Trump goobers supporters to live in denial regarding Trump's atrocious incompetence, unjustified arrogance, and lying thievery at the expense of the American nation. Easier to blame it on the people calling out the misdeeds than to face reality. Which sounds more likely, Yakov?

The World News forum is the overarching forum that contains the Political Soapbox forum:

I support the USA - and because of that I don't support Trump - and my last bp was 107/70. Your point? Other than to proclaim that you support the USA but cheer it's destruction under the baby wipe residue that is branded as "Trump". But to address the OP, you've got to be a complete idiot to support Trump.

Is there a third way? I don't think Trump is capable of the two you listed.

If it irritates the OP and cause him to devolve yet again into a spittle-spewing, red-faced, bug-eyed loon then I'm all in favor of a publicly available ICE tracking app.

During his first term in office, Trump told 30,753 lies. Nice graph in the article showing the exponential growth. https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2021/01/donald-trump-thirty-thousand-lies/

I'm hoping you meant poutine. "Putain is a French vulgarity meaning "wh@re" or "f**k" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Putain#:~:text=Putain is a French vulgarity,Matic's 1983 album Choco

"I guess you don't understand negotiating tactics." "Yep, it's the Art of the Deal." "He's playing 4D chess." "Those are just the ones he's announced so far." "Lefty MSM lying again." Did I forget anything? I feel like I should have a "Make Americans Goobers Again" checklist of excuses.

"Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced Tuesday that travelers will no longer be required to remove their shoes when going through Transportation Security Administration security checkpoints at all airports across the U.S., ending the nearly two-decade mandate by the agency." https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/homeland-security-ends-mandatory-shoe-removal-airport-screening/story?id=123581156

Not to mention thoroughly corrupting the political process by appointing numerous psychopaths in his 2nd term. (Looking at you, Stephen Miller.)

Anyone else smell TACOs?

Awesome job proving my point, lol.

Completely ignorant comment. If you think the US doesn't have tariffs already in place on various categories of imported products, maybe you shouldn't be speaking on the subject.

How's the weather over there in "Opposite World"?

Yeah, she had to quit wearing her signature crucifix necklace because it started burning so much with each lie she told.

Got something on your mind, I see. Undernourished Cambodian hookers can't be that expensive.

Someone named "angryguy". Duh.

Says who? (I mean, besides random internet whackjobs.)

Funny, I'm thinking Trump's arrogance had the largest role to play.

"When we learned of the climbing death toll, including some two dozen girl campers at the beloved childhood nirvana of Camp Mystic, it was impossible not to think of Musk and Trump’s thoughtless, ill-planned hacking away at the professional expertise in government agencies like the National Weather Service. Six hundred NWS staffers were dispatched, including the warning coordination meteorologist in the Austin-San Antonio office, who took the DOGE buyout last spring." https://tinabrown.substack.com/p/orange-lotus-how-the-trump-show-outwits

Try reading beyond the headline, like even the first 1/2 sentence: "The Thai baht's recent four-month rally ......"

Smells like TACO.

You do realize that when people disagree with your opinion it doesn't automatically make them a "liar". Your "go to" line is - "liar". One begins to suspect you don't know the actual meaning of the word. Few of us believe your claims of "liar" any more since you've overplayed it. You just sound like a broken record, someone who has a pre-planned response because they can't find something else to say that won't get deleted by the mods. Yes, some people do lie - like Trump. (Go ahead - respond to the post with "liar". Can't wait.)
