Trump's Bullshit Trade Tantrums

To be fair, Trump has been busy trying to negotiate trade agreements with individual members of the EU.

Those deals with Moldova, Andorra and Latvia should create lots of US jobs.
 
New Pacific trade deal could leave U.S. playing catchup

Trump has expressed preference for negotiating one-on-one trade agreements with other countries, saying he can ensure a better deal for American workers.

But remaining TPP members like Japan and Vietnam, whom Trump visited on his Asia tour, will be less inclined to do one-on-one trade deals with the U.S. if the new TPP is finalized soon, according to Capri.

"The Trump team basically just wants to pound these guys into submission," he said. "No trade partner of the U.S. wants to do a bilateral with them."

Capri predicts Trump could face pressure at home if U.S. companies start losing business in TPP countries to competitors from places like Canada and Australia.

I mean, I'm not surprised, but he doesn't actually understand what a trade deficit is, does he?
