CHUCKMAN COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE ON CBC NEWS
Chrystia Freeland
going to Washington about NAFTA
_______________________
Response to a comment
about Trump negotiating:
Well, yes, but again he does not personally negotiate.
Appointed experts do.
But he does, in fact, know how to capitulate. He has done it
several times in the last year. I'm amazed his belly-over-belt acolytes in
trailer parks across the continent still regard him as a leader fighting the
establishment. It's a bad joke.
And right now, Washington is facing a cluster of disasters
of its own making.
Huge new Chinese tariffs in response to The Great Orange
One's blowhard efforts.
Serious problems with Russia owing to the many stupidities
piled up against them (and thanks to Chrystia and Justin for joining in on that
mindless crusade).
The EU crumbling.
And lots more.
Trump may be quite ready to back off and keep NAFTA despite
threats. There are also military and security implications of happy border
neighbors he may have been reminded of.
If he does, it will have nothing to do with Chrystia
Freeland’s efforts, one of our most embarrassing Foreign Ministers.
It won't even have a lot to do with our fluffy, always politically-correct
Prime Minister either.
It will be the Empire's examining its situation and deciding
to change course on something.
