Without the EU, not only will they lose a big market, they will lose all the negotiating power in their trade talks(may war) with China/USA/India/ASEAN.

1)Trump has said he can’t wait to trade with an independent UK.
2)China will trade with anyone, deals will be made that must be made.
3)India is like China, but also as an ex colony, has British roots that go deep. No worry there.
4)Other Asian nations are like China as well.

The only concern is the EU itself, if it decides not to trade with the UK. Yet the EU would also be a big loser in this case, as such a decision would be terribly unpopular with Europeans at large who would lose. This would only inspire more EU nations to exit the EU, as they are already doing.

Long term, I wouldn’t buy Euros. The EU will be down to just Germany, Belgium, and Luxembourg in less than ten years.

RafiMaas says

If Mexico does try to hamper the hordes, once the tariffs are lifted it will be back to business as usual.

Not likely. I'm under the impression that most agreements we make between countries tends to last and be adhered to for quite a while. Right?

The idea is to pressure Mexico into creating new laws and policies to our liking. Sure, they may stop once Trump leaves office, but they risk political backlash, just like they would for going back on their word for any other agreement.

RafiMaas says

Yes I believe shit won't stick. These tariffs are in direct violation of USMCA

If Democrats want to enforce this, all they have to do is bring the USMCA treaty up for a vote in congress. But Pelosi doesn’t want to do that, to make the treaty official, because she can’t give Trump a win. I just find it ironic that you want to hide behind an unratified trade treaty when your side is the very reason it is unratified!
Pathetic.

RafiMaas says

You do realize niether Mexico nor Canada have ratified either... Right? Didn't know Pelosi had so much power that she ratifies it for all three countries.

All three countries signed the renegotiation months ago in November.

When the International Trade Commission (Executive) presents the Bill to Congress, they have a limited time to draft legislation to empower the terms renegotiated, if any.

No amendments are possible. No fillibusters are possible.

Then, the MUST send the bill to a floor vote, regardless of Ways and Means Committee, the Speaker, or anybody else. Then it goes to the Senate, similar shit happens there.

So the Dems can't simply ignore the USMCA indefinitely. Once they're given it, they have only days before it's required to go to the Floor.

Ironically, this process, the Trade Promotion Authority (TPA) mechanism, was passed in Congress by Fugitive Traitors ("Free Traders") in order to limit and prevent debate on new trade deals which were then (2015) seen as almost certainly beneficial Wall Street's and foreign lobbyists' benefits. Mostly in order to head off challenges to TPP specifically. TPP wasn't enacted in 2016 because Obama didn't want to poison Hillary's campaign. She had every intention of passing it in 2017 or 2018 after some toothless token language about the environment and labor rights with no enforcement or conditions were added. With the help of Romney, Amash, Pelosi, Feinstein, etc.

Which is why she kept saying "As it's currently written" so as to deflect claims she reneged on her promises when she would sign the TPP in 2017-2018, which she called the "Gold Standard" for years, until she announced in 2015. And even then, Podesta and Palmeri and others had to basically corner and badger her consistently in the early days to oppose it in her campaign rhetoric. This is why Itau and Citigroup were giving her 6 figure speaking fees.

Think Trump is dumb? More 4D Chess Sun Tzu Shit. Free Traders hoisted by their own Patard. Hung on the very rope they fashioned to wring the neck of working America with TPP.

If the Dems think they're going to win in Indiana and Ohio and Pennsylvania by holding up NAFTA Reform, they can think again - Dems can't just keep it off the table and avoid the issue, nor can they amend it AT ALL.

And don't count on having Trudeau, who along with his buddy Freeland, are now enjoying the worst approval rating of any Canadian Government in decades, because of the SNC-Lavalin Scandal - which resulted in two cabinet resignations along with the head of the Civil Service - and the disastrous Pipeline debacle that has held up a huge jobs project in the West.

Elections happen in the fall, and he has precious little time to mend the Liberal's reputation, and can't risk more Economic and Political difficulties.

Which Candidate Said This?

I do not buy the concept, popular in the ’60s, which said, “We have suppressed the black man for 300 years and the white man is now far ahead in the race for everything our society offers. In order to even the score, we must now give the black man a head start, or even hold the white man back, to even the race. I don’t buy that,” (REDACTED) told a (STATE REDACTED, too easy) weekly newspaper in 1975. “I don’t feel responsible for the sins of my father and grandfather.I feel responsible for what the situation is today, for the sins of my own generation. And I’ll be damned if I feel responsible to pay for what happened 300 years ago.”

And can he effectively double talk his way out of it, if asked for his current opinion on the subject.

Your confusing Stacy Abrams with trump.

RafiMaas says

Pathetic

Owned.

Not even Snopes will verify this crap.

And exactly where would the "giant tarp" go to cover up the name?

According to liberals let’s outsource all jobs and productivity outside of US. Because those countries will never do bad things to US, besides work is overrated, welfare is highest admiration.

Where IS the name, anyway? I don't see it on the picture provided by the OP.

RafiMaas says

Fucking draft dodger to boot.

Hundreds of US sailors would be alive today if Mccain had dodged the draft.

That’s a cute little ship old mavericky gets his name on. Kind of tiny, but then so was he.

If he looses he looses, you won't see anybody crying or trying to change the way we vote that's for sure.

What kind of shitty submissive dog was it?
Must be an Obama dog.

APOCALYPSEFUCKisShostikovitch says

That's right, a guy from the Turtle Preservation Society was just by the house shrieking that he wants all the white people's jobs sent to China because COMMUNISM! GOOD! and tried to make the neighbor's dog gay.

Trump wins or loses, I will never respect or give a Democrat President Peace ever. And I'll teach every kid I know what rotten bastards they are.

Anyone that would run on a Democrat ticket is a Commie Fag, Liar, and an Enemy of America.

I can't wait to bash those Democrat Losers up beside the head with a 4 inch log, just because they were rallying or celebrating their president. And if I EVER! Catch them out in Public wearing a ball cap with their Presidential Candidate on it. Oooooowie! God have mercy on their soul the vile disgusting things I will say to that stupid Fuck.

RafiMaas says

Did you before?

Of course I did, the President was the President. I didn't like Obama, but I kept my mouth shut when people were gushing about what great wonderful things they thought he was doing. My black friend, I never once shat on Obama around him while he was having an empowered moment. I figured everyone would see what a mother fucking scumbag Obama was when Trump makes him do the perp walk. That Jive Ass Mother Fucker!

He should just decommission the damn thing, so it wont ever be a petty issue the Liberals can latch on to to shit on Trump ever Again.

Sink it off the Fukushima to make an artificial Reef.


Fuck that Loser McShitstain.

Of course, this problem pertains to leftoids only.

Y'all do remember when I said Republicans seem to have the ability to take the stupid shit Liberals started or new dynamics in Politics.
Then when it's their turn of to bat, or when the table reverses, and the shoe is on the other foot.

I think you know where I'm going with this. And I've been right every single time when I have said the precedence the Liberals create wont end well for them when the Republicans take it. Then rip it limb by limb and beat the Democrats senseless with it.

So no, your next Democrat president wont be a Happy Happy Fun Time moment in History for you and the Democrat voter.

What's good for the Goose, just makes great table Gravy.

Projection?

It’s not the Republicans that have ever impeded a peaceful transfer of power....

You don't recall saying this on March 31, 2012?

Obama Sucks Ass = Fact!

Kept your mouth shut my ass.

That was his second term, and that is me on an Internet forum, pushing back at uncivil assholes.

What Soros has done with the Antifa and manipulating our Youth to shut down public discourse and open debate. Goes way beyond that.

We're talking about two different levels of incivility here. You're referencing forum posts. I'm talking about showing up at peaceful rallies that was paid by organizers they had permit to be there. But showing up with Bullhorns, vuvuzelas, Can Air Horns, and throwing bottles of piss and shit at those dumb enough to dare to show up at such a public event in support of the Democrat President. Shut it down!

Who's Streets? Our Streets!

Yeah that type of disgusting shit. Doesn't it just warm the cockles of your soul?

I didn't build that! Obama Did!

But we will take it and beat the Democrats senseless with their own shit. Republicans have an excellent track record of taking the Democrats abandoned car, souping it up and winning the race.

Total projection.

Have these people been asleep the last 3 years missing the Democrats, Media, Hollywood going totally apeshit, let alone the weaponization of the Federal bureaucracy with all the Russia investigation bullshit?

RafiMaas says

Trumpcucks

I think you misunderstand the nature of the word “cuckold” which means a man who knowingly allows his wife to be plowed by other men. Maybe even enjoys it? At any rate, he’s not much of a man, probably a socialist, and certainly neither forceful nor alpha.

Who does that remind us of? Oh, Leftists.

Once again, I’ll reiterate that Leftist never accuse people of crimes that they themselves don’t regularly perpetrate. Projection is really all they have, even when it doesn’t make any sense!

I hope the Democrats will accept the election results, unlike in 2016 when they went from "There is no rigged, you're just losing" to "MUH RUSSIA" and even after their Elite Ultraspecial Officer Friday couldn't find anything on him, still insist he's guilty of "Collusion with Russia".

Trump won't do anything, but the Dems might open up the internment camps to make sure something like Trump's victory never happens again.

Tim Aurora says

Let us wait for Brexit ( the first right wing action item) to work out and see how does British economy work. Without the EU, not only will they lose a big market, they will lose all the negotiating power in their trade talks(may war) with China/USA/India/ASEAN.

The UK has a big trade deficit with the EU. The UK has lost overseas trade surplus since being an EU member, and it declined faster as time goes on.

The EU is a system designed to soak up German Exports and exclude non-EU imports, hence their repeated attempts to knock out US Software, hoping to replace it with domestic software.

RafiMaas says

This is exact sample how Left are lack of critical thinking.
Look only on surface, takes everything as is like a pet, then responds on spot.

dissing an American war veteran who ....

You should be ashamed of yourself.

Mccain was an evil war criminal who supported the evil system whose management he was born into. He considered JFKs assasination an "intervention" .

RafiMaas says

Really Americans don't diss war veterans.

Really?

RafiMaas says

Americans don't diss war veterans.

Some Americans don't.

Other Americans put illegal immigrants above our war veterans.

Doesn't it seem that way?

Despite having an IQ higher than around 92% of the population, I've been repeatedly been called braindead, stupid, and moron by others due to my support of President Trump. Same for my Dad, whose IQ is higher than around 99.8% of the population.

I think its crazy town when people call others who are more intelligent than they are "stupid".

The peaceful transition of power will be in 2024.

Is this some kind of medical condition?

Golly, you must have had a bummer of an adolescence with a Dad who was actually smarter.

Tim Aurora says

More and more people are worried that if Trump loses in 2020m, he might complain about voting fraud and not transfer the power peacefully in essence ending the 200+ years of democracy in USA.

yeah, that's worth worrying about in 2019.....Hugolas_Madurez says
