CLAIMS THAT THE ‘NAFTA 2’ AGREEMENT IS BETTER IS A MACABRE JOKE
{So Democrats went along to get along, much as they did in approving the massive $738 billion Pentagon budget. In other words, they once again demonstrated that cringing and cowering is their default position. One can imagine the discussion behind closed doors: Yes, that will show Donald Trump we mean business — we’ll support his most desired policy initiative.}
{In “free trade” lingo, when a corporation sues a government, the dispute is to be adjudicated in a mechanism known as an “investor-state dispute settlement.” That bland-sounding bureaucratic phrase means that a tribunal decides the issue. Under NAFTA, and many other “free trade” agreements, the tribunal is the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID), an arm of the World Bank. One of President Trump’s empty promises was to put an end to the use of these tribunals. Surprise! It’s ain’t so. OK, it’s not a surprise that he lied.}
I think it might be fair to say that there isn't going to be to many Trump supporters who will be informed of this particular aspect of their continued betrayal. SO! With that said, I would suggest to you here, that you might want to embed this into you talking points for when you're confronting your Trump supporting family and friends.
