Naw...............they already got a good two weeks of condemning him........(for something that never took effect ) ON TO THE NEXT SQUIRREL ! DEVELOPING: Trump announces tariff-avoiding deal with Mexico. Pop the tequila and pass the guacamole — the US has struck a trade deal with Mexico that will avert tariffs on imports. “I am pleased to inform you that The United States of America has reached a signed agreement with Mexico,” President Trump tweeted Friday night. “The Tariffs scheduled to be implemented by the U.S. on Monday, against Mexico, are hereby indefinitely suspended,” he added. “Mexico, in turn, has agreed to take strong measures to stem the tide of Migration through Mexico, and to our Southern Border,” he said.

Look at the twitter comments under Trump's announcement, it's full of liberals suddenly being on the same page claiming that Trump "created" a crisis, so that he could "solve" the crisis. If this holds up, it will be even funnier than the "coverup by releasing information" nonsense they tried last week.

Keukasmallies Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 So, in the last analysis, the stick is more effective than the carrot. Trump is about as subtle as a semi truck, but there are those times when his approach yields quick results. Now the concern is monitoring the agreement's implementation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you should have no problem providing a list of the exact items that Mexico caved in to that weren't part of the prior agreements. While you're looking for that, think of the longer term implications of the President boy who cried wolf and got AMLO to deploy 6,000 federales to his southern border. Did he get the agriculture win that he crowed about? Did AMLO agree to the real concession of categorizing Mexico as a "safe third country?" What do you think will happen when he plays the tariff card next, especially after USMCTA is ratified? What do you think realistically happened in the last week - Mexico fully caved to Trump's demands, or Trump's inner circle (family) sat him down and explained to him again that using tariffs as a bludgeon was a really bad idea because he wasn't going to get what he really wanted and he faced a GOP revolt? If there were truly big gaps in the negotiating positions and the USA's only option was to threaten tariffs, then it's nearly impossible that gulf would be bridged in less that a week. More likely is that the two sides agreed to a PR compromise that gave Trump a semblance of public victory, but didn't change matters much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a polar opposite to TDS, which is thinking that everything that Trump does is wonderful. You have to stop and ask why are NYT and WSJ op-eds aligned on a topic? Using tariffs as the bludgeoning tool in this spat will make that tool far less effective if that's the only thing that he can revert to. The call for tariffs was not a carefully deliberated strategy. It was the latest off the cuff tactic that countered his inner circle. Businesses and countries will adapt to this tactic, and it will be a lot easier to call his bluff next time and will make the job much tougher for his trade team to negotiate the next trade deals.

I will say the the Democrats and MSM (BIRM) have done the impossible - turned a billionaire into an underdog to the average American, and if there is one thing the average American loves, it is to cheer for the underdog. 2) It is very difficult to argue with someone who does not think that President Trump plans, nor does his administration. It is so far from reality, that only the most - well, I don't want to insult anyone, so let's just say that people spouting the "seat of his pants" nonsense are disconnected from reality. President Trump has always been a planner. Ever put together a real estate deal? Those do not happen because someone decided that today they'd put together parcel A, B, C, and D and then deal with the red tape, environmental clean-ups, and regulatory bull####. To say he stopped planning when he became president is ridiculous. 3) He has two cards to play: sanctions and tariffs. Contact your local Congress Critter to vote for a wall and illegal alien reform (dump them back on their mother-country) if you would like to end the border crisis once and for all.

Isn't there also a difference between acting on an agreement and not acting on an agreement? The dems have made every attempt possible to thwart Trump's pledge to secure the border.
