News Gingrich’s latest message includes a short summary of President
Trump’s trade deals:
The breakthrough in trade
negotiations with Mexico is, to use one of President Trump’s favorite words, huge.
Most of the so-called experts had
said the North Atlantic Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) couldn’t be renegotiated.
They insisted Trump had offended Mexicans so much with his harsh language that
the Mexican government wouldn’t come to the table. They asserted building the
wall would alienate the Mexican leadership. They were just plain wrong.
President Trump’s progress on NAFTA
sends five big signals:
1.
Making good on a big, disruptive pledge that set
his 2016 campaign apart from every other candidate, President Trump kept his
word and is forcing a difficult negotiation toward success.
2.
President Trump proved, once again, that tough
language and tough negotiating can actually lead to breakthroughs. Unlike most
politicians, Trump is willing to endure heat to achieve success.
3.
As a result of his seriousness on trade, other
countries are now approaching Trump about trade negotiations (note German
Chancellor Merkel’s call this week for trade talks).
4.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau tried to
be clever when he ambushed and attempted to embarrass President Trump during a
press conference at the G7 Summit in Canada. Trudeau is now discovering that
Trump has a good memory. Canada now has virtually no leverage in trying to play
catch up with the U.S.-Mexico negotiations.
5.
The Trump Administration’s continued attention
to economic matters – despite the liberal media’s daily efforts to get him and
his team off balance through dishonest reporting and smear stories – is paying
off. The average American sees the economy getting better and better. And the
average American increasingly thinks the success is due to President Trump.
