Be wary... some of these so called wins in retrospect years later are merely "saving face" agreements where each side claims success in their press.

For example the canadian huge new agreement with Canada and USA to allow dairy and eggs from USA (one third the price compared to socialist canadian products) into canada is RESTRICTED TO BARELY ONE PERCENT OF TOTAL CANADIAN CONSUMPTION!!!!

HA!

Of course if not limits, then the entire socialist economy of canada would go out of business in a year or two and all dairy and eggs and cheese would be eventually be USA products, so I understand SOME limits.
But the outrageous canadian tariffs kick in at barely a measly one percent of import tonnage.

Its just called "saving face" politics, but I assume Trump's deals are still far better not worse, than any prior deals.

Funny, your comment is similar to how CNN or MSNBC are reporting any good accomplishment made by President Trump.

I would have liked to see the 25% tariffs on China go into effect...might still given China's negotiation history. The way to handle Chinese imports is to stop buying their lame crap. Its terrible. Start a website called "Chinese Crap" and list all the consumer goods made in China that crapped out within a year or less of purchase and where they were bought. Boycott!
