Just cancel it, make a new Act with a different name and equal purpose, claim victory. Seems to be the most likely procedure with the current administration.

>Seems to be the most likely procedure with the current administration. For example? Also please show that the major current on-going efforts, like ongoing negotiations, measures in the border etc, were worked upon as intensive as it is now, in the previous administration.

USMCA

Why don’t YOU show those things? That would at least be the start of a good faith discussion and not a whataboutism bias tirade.

Not sure if you are the same person. But anyway, I cannot read your mind. Please explain your justifications for the claim or please share an article that does it.

Trump replaced NAFTA with USMCA during his first term. He claimed it was the best deal ever.

This term, he's claiming the deal is terrible and starting a trade war (which is likely not winnable and probably ends up settling for something approximating NAFTA again).

Which is it? Best deal ever, or crap? He's lying about one.

Paywalled, so how did it go to the frontpage if most people can't read it?

> if most people can't read it? By reading the headline

This.

Many HN users don't read the articles. Some are even unapologetic about it, explicitly admitting that they're here only for the comments.

Easier: Make some trivial amendment to it (does not need to be ratified), and then just start calling it something else. "It was a disaster, but We Fixed It because I'm your favorite."

Isn't that how they "fixed ACA" last time around? Failed to have the votes to repeal it, so they "saved" it
