Destroy Trump for opposing NAFTA

By Jon Rappoport

NAFTA...The North American Free Trade Agreement...born on January 1, 1994...it's a deal among the governments of the U S, Mexico and Canada.

One group has stated:

"Negotiated behind closed doors with hundreds of official corporate advisors, NAFTA was radically different than past trade deals that focused on traditional trade matters, like cutting border taxes. Instead, most of NAFTA's provisions grant new powers and privileges to multinational corporations."

So Trump recently spoke out decisively against NAFTA---and as in any situation where he speaks at all, he's attacked by the press.

Here is a pop quiz. Here are three statements about NAFTA. You decide who uttered them.

ONE: "...most of NAFTA's provisions grant new powers and privileges to multinational corporations. These new powers make it easier for corporations to outsource jobs...NAFTA's 'investor protections' create incentives for corporations to relocate production and jobs elsewhere. Indeed, the U.S. has lost more than 950,000 American jobs due to NAFTA, according to the Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) database."

"Plus, NAFTA guts the Buy American policies that require the government to buy American-made goods when spending our tax dollars. This outsources our tax dollars rather than investing them to create jobs here."

"NAFTA has also lowered U.S. wages, increased inequality, and hurt U.S. manufacturing and agriculture in all 50 states. At the same time, it has decimated the Mexican economy, driving millions from their homes."

TWO: "I will fundamentally rewrite NAFTA, other trade agreements...Not only did I oppose permanent normal trade relations with China, I stood with Steel workers and united electrical workers in opposition to it...Normalized trade with China cost us 3.2 million jobs including over 120,000 here in Pennsylvania."

THREE: "Remember, NAFTA was one of the WORST Trade Deals ever made. The U.S. lost thousands of businesses and millions of jobs. We were far better off before NAFTA - should never have been signed. Even the Vat Tax was not accounted for. We make new deal or go back to pre-NAFTA!"

OK? Ready with your answers? Yes, you guessed correctly from recognizing the rhetoric---statement 3 was written by President Trump.

Statement 1 was written by Lori Wallach, who works for Ralph Nader's group, Public Citizen, which is decidedly on the political Left. And statement number 2 was made by none other than presidential candidate and avowed socialist, Bernie Sanders.

What's the main difference between these three characters? Wallach and Sanders can say anything they want to, and the amount of heat coming their way is relatively minor. No matter what Trump says, he gets heat. And yet...

On this MAJOR issue, NAFTA, and free-trade treaties in general, Wallach, Sanders, and Trump are in agreement. They all see the insanity and criminality. A socialist, a far-left activist, and a bull capitalist.

Thus demonstrating that, for the press, it matters not what you say, it only matters who they decide you are.

And they decide who you are according to an agenda. Whose agenda? Simple: Rockefeller Globalists, who love free trade treaties, who have spent decades crafting them and foisting them on the public, who see President Trump as a wild card unpredictable swaggering cowboy...
