Mexican President to Urge Pelosi to Move Forward With USMCA

Sorry you think North America is only Mexico.

 

Evidently Trump feels the same way..But you left him out of your observation.

 

She is is speaker of the house which has the majority and they are currently not governing what so ever. They are the do nothing congress at this current stage.

The good news, however, is they are sending a strong message to their constituents that maybe a change is in order.

 

Where is Mexico's auto industry located?(this OP is about Mexico's el presidente..)

 

You apparently did not read your own link. The dem clown show timed the vote to embarrass a visiting foreign official. They apparently were OK with it during the Obama administration.

 

Mexico. You really don't know that Mexico makes autos?

 

No they have been very busy passing a lot of legislation which is what their role is in national governance (alongside impeachment!), to the Senate Cemetery. They just don't pass Trumps legislative agenda. That is because they ran for office on a very different platform, and decided to pass the priorities they ran on.

Elections have consequences and republicans have been losing a lot of them recently. It sucks to be Trump I guess.

 

Its already been over a year. Meaning she is sitting on this and preventing an even stronger economy with more jobs.

Do you agree with Pelosi using the USMCA as leverage for impeachment against her fellow house dems?

 

Why would she do anything that could benefit the country? That doesn’t her win an election so **** everyone. She doesn’t want anything good to happen until Democrats win so she’ll delay and run around in circles until that day.

Remember. When Trump announced that black unemployment was down at the SOTU, Democrats didn’t clap. They sat on their hands. Quite a disgusting display of hate and butt hurt.

 

Quick change the subject!

 

.....and people on food stamps.

 

How long has the GOP Senate been sitting on all of the bills that the Dem House has sent over?

Pot Meet Kettle.

As far as the thing on the OP?

Why should Pelosi even care what the Mexican President has to say?

 

Agreed and its case in point for why the democrat party does not represent working Americans.

 

No I agree with Pelosi and Moscow Mitch that big decisions involving SCOTUS appointments and international treaties that cannot readily be 'amended' by simple statutes should wait until the election year results are in and a new Congress and President are chosen based in part on these as campaign issues. What's the rush? Its just a year.

See you can phrase it however you want, you will get back the answer I provide you. Your turn.

Do you object to letting voters have a voice in this when they cast their ballots in 2020? Why shouldn't we wait and see if Trump is re-elected with a majority support for this treaty, rather than pass it have newbies sabotage or rip it up.

Presidents these days like to trash prior agreements made by their predecessors. the smart answer is not to pass them in the first place.

 

Do you really not know this?



Mexico is the second largest automobile manufacturing nation in the Western Hemisphere, after the United States, having produced 4 million vehicles in 2017.

Look at the USMCA-when it specifies "wages at 15 dollars/hr" that essentially means production coming back to the US on those parts.

 

By increasing the domestic supply chain and bringing more manufacturing jobs to the US.

USMCA to add $68.2B to US economy, spur 176k jobs says key independent review panel

And lots of them. They just recently closed the VW beetle plant but it rolled out thousands of Beetles annually.

 

Who could be opposed to that?

 

Top Dems.

 

It's to make our automakers produce more here instead of Mexico when those goods will be sold here.

It's a carbon reduction as well because the goods will be made closer to where they are being sold reducing transport distances.

 

There are a number of cities. Hermosillo, Saltillo, Silao, Aguascalientes, Puebla, Toluca, Cuautitlan and Baha California. Mexico manufactures or assembles Ford, Chevy, GMC, Dodge, Audi, Nissan, Toyota, Honda and Volkswagen in their plants. There are also a lot of aftermarket parts and other automotive products made in Mexico, like seats and upholstery. It's a very big market. By 2020, Cars and light trucks made in Mexico and sold in the US it will be over 26%. Mexico also makes cars and trucks sold in Canada.

 

You are essentially proposing that Presidents don't do anything in their 4th and 8th years. For 25% of their presidency you want them to sit on their hands. That is absurd.

Your argument is even more absurd because Pelosi has been sitting on this and stalling for so long already. If she wasn't so busy obstructing, your argument about doing it in Trump's fourth year wouldn't even apply because we'd have already passed the USMCA.

As for the voters having a voice in this ---- they had a voice in 2016 and they elected Trump.

 

Maybe you should reread my post to see what might distinguish and international treaty and SCOTUS nominations from other forms of activity involving the legislative branch.

Trump did not run on the details of this treaty in 2016, anymore than Obama ran in 2012 on the Garland nomination to the court which Moscow Mitch sat on. Neither existed to run on.

So, the USMCA is the second iteration of NAFTA(the agreement also involves Canada). I don't know if you're familiar the negotiations for NAFTA, but they began early in the Reagan presidency, yet it wasn't passed until midway through Clinton's first term. Free trade agreements are usually negotiated for several years before they are finally passed. That's how they all are
