The U.S., Mexico, and Canada came to a late-hours agreement Sunday to create a trilateral trade deal to replace NAFTA that is being deemed the USMCA, U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement.
Senior Trump administration officials briefed reporters late Sunday night on the new deal, just one hour before the deadline set to send a U.S.-Mexico deal to Congress.

The USMCA "includes ambitious new market access provisions for our farmers and ranchers," according to the officials. It also includes provisions to make sure the deal does not get "stale and outdated"

Provisions address digital trade, establish groundbreaking intellectual property provisions, and combat currency manipulation.

"We think this is a fantastic agreement for the United States but also for Canada and Mexico," one of the officials stated.

Officials pointed to a review provision as giving the U.S. a significant form of leverage to get people to meet the mark and keep obligations. They emphasized the U.S. is committed to "strong and effective enforcement of this agreement." They said this reinforces that this is not just words on paper.

The deal is "going to change peoples lives and it's going to make" America stronger and better, the officials conveyed. They said they are "very very excited about it over here."

I thought it was hilarious as well. Trudeau thought he could force the US to his terms, Trump said 'Hey Mexico, have I got a deal for you'.

All this was going on while the moron Dems were displaying some blowsy drug addled harpy lying her ass off over what did or did not happen 36 yers ago......

Yep, had to avoid the good news. Remember when NAFTA was in the news for nearly 6 months and what a Statesman Bill Klinton was for bringing our world closer to the global Utopia the left had been having wet dreams over for the last century?
Trump threw cold water on that shit in short time.

I still quote Ross Perot:   That giant sucking sound is American jobs going down the drain (or some such) Boy was Ross ever Right.

In retrospect, Perot was a genius prophet.
Sadly, too early for his time, people weren't quite awake yet.

I bet China was paying attention to this trade deal as it was being made. They just lost a little more negotiating power.

No question.  They are having some issues over there:

I laugh when I think of China negotiating Trump. They thought the US was going to roll over like all the former Crony Establishment hacks that sold out the country for their billionaire constituents like the Bush family did, or the Clinton's  and their use of the taxpayer as their own personal bank.
China counted on corrupt leadership doing the bidding of foreign interest. Trump looked at NAFTA, pulled out his Bowie, grabbed it by the balls,  and with a measured swing, neutered that shit all to Hell.
Xi sat in shock as he watched NAFTA run off into the field bleeding where it's balls used to be,, knowing that it will bleed out and die in short time.
That was all they had, an assurance of business as usual under NAFTA would go on for years, they planned their economy around stealing from American taxpayers, and Trump just killed it.
China literally planned on taking over the dollar, Trump just killed the Marxists dream.
