That was four, but who's counting.

Not for too long. Trump is bringing back the automotive jobs from Mexico once he reneges on NAFTA. Invest now before it's too late.

From the Liar-in Chief:

Quote:
“NAFTA was signed by Bill Clinton. NAFTA has been a catastrophe, an absolute catastrophe for our country.”

—Donald Trump, interview with Bret Baier of Fox News, May 6, 2016

“NAFTA was given to us by Clinton. We can’t take any more of the Clintons.”

—Trump, during a rally in Charleston, W.V., May 6

“NAFTA, signed by Bill Clinton, has been a total disaster for the United States.”

—Trump, in an interview on CNN, May 2

Donald Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee for president, has long attacked free-trade pacts, in particular the North American Free Trade Agreement. For a politician who is remarkably inconsistent in his policy stances, opposition to NAFTA and trade deals has been a lodestar. BuzzFeed even located an October 1993 speech in which Trump attacked NAFTA as a bad deal.

“It’s a no-brainer,” Trump said, according to a news report. “The Mexicans want it, and that doesn’t sound good to me.”

But there are a lot of things that Trump gets wrong about NAFTA, including its basic history.

Uh no. You might want to look at the history of NAFTA, which includes prior agreements that date back to the late 1980's. What Bush is signing is not the final version of NAFTA that was ultimately ratified by Congress.

That said, even though Bush signed it, doesn't mean it was a good thing. Bush was also the "read my lips" guy.

The point is that your party supported it ALL ALONG. And, yes, it started during the REAGAN ADMINISTRATION..... Last I checked, Reagan was a REPUBLICAN and a great hero of his party.

Thanks, Ronnie!

So, tell me; How do you snaky bastards avoid owning your creations? What, because you're to goody-good to ever do anything bad or stupid? "Why we would NEVER. That wouldn't be moral!" What a joke. The sad part is that people buy your sanctimonious bullshit.
