WaPo’s Gearan on NAFTA: A Pressure Tactic Against Canada and a Way to Change the Subject from John McCain

‘it’s also a way to change the subject from John McCain and Trump’s relationship with John McCain because now we’re all talking about NAFTA’

EXCERPT:

GEARAN: "So three things. Trump hates NAFTA, always has. He said he would be willing to have a look at it to see if it can be redone to his satisfaction. But it’s always been clear his preference would be somehow to do away with it, something he cannot do unilaterally. So this is the next best thing. This is a pressure tactic against Canada and his former friend, now not so much friend Justin Trudeau. And I think it’s also a way to change the subject from John McCain and Trump’s relationship with John McCain because now we’re all talking about NAFTA."
