Trump's Deal Skills

[phrodeau]

Trans-Pacific Partnership - Trump promised to withdraw the US from the deal on day one, and actually does so on day three. The remaining countries work out a deal among themselves.

A few weeks ago, Trump announced that he wants to get in on the deal they worked out. The countries involved tell him no thanks.

Paris Agreement - Trump announced his intention to withdraw the US from the deal as soon as possible, which will be November 2020.

In February, news comes out that Trump is considering keeping the US in the Paris Agreement. Other countries don't seem to care much.

Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action - Trump withdraws the US from the international agreement to keep Iran from developing nuclear weapons. The other countries involved announce that they plan to continue with the agreement, and leave the US out of it.

Elect a Clown, Expect a Circus!!

The Kenyan Usurper was better. And you couldn't pin a blowjob on him, much less fucking a Porn Star under duress.

Border security scorecard: Old-fashioned American compromise 1, Trump 0

Trump looks both marginalized and inept. He looks marginalized because serious people in Washington were doing serious business while he was down in El Paso falsely claiming that the city’s existing border barrier reduced crime, which both FBI statistics and the city’s Republican mayor refute.

Trump looks inept because last year he rejected a bipartisan Senate agreement that would have provided more funds than the $1.38 billion in the bipartisan legislation. Not exactly the “Art of the Deal.” True, he might claim a modest victory on the esoteric issue of detainee immigrant bed math, but the money shot here was the “wall.”

Yep, Donald Trump's deal-making skills go into the negative. And the Trumpettes on this board know that.

No trade deal with China yet.

No nuclear deals with North Korea or Iran yet.

Trump walked out on Kim in Hanoi, and Kim went postal. Five diplomats have been executed, and a top aide was sent to a labor camp.

So much winning.
