#22Public money, public factories?
There is nothing public, just free money for the private sector.

> For example? USMCA
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.
USMCA was NAFTA, which Trump was against before and then supported it after the rename. Only the name changed, the treaty did not.

It's strategically important

You know how to use Google, right?
That would put a wrench in whatever weird contrarian play that keeps getting OP banned.
I don’t know why I even engaged. Haven’t had my coffee yet.

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
Hero John McCain saved it

>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.
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.
So I searched for "NAFTA USMCA difference" and there are a lot of articles that describe the differences.
I agree that Trump sometimes exaggerate stuff, but that does not mean that there is nothing is there.
I think It is very dishonest to claim that all the current administration is doing is just continuing what the previous ones did, but with changed names.

They got rid of the much hated, terrible, corrupt, illegal Obamacare and replaced it with the much loved and wonderful Affordable Care Act.

#29Was national security impaired four years ago before the CHIPS Act?
That said I like the CHIPS Act in principle. We should have real industrial policy.

#30Trump supporters tell me Trump isn't aiding China but then everything Trump does has a weird way of aiding China. Why would we repeal the CHIPS act and remove our ability to secure a domestic supply of chips?
