Sen. Chuck Grassley: Skeptics Are Eating Crow on Trump Trade Deals


“Skeptics of President Donald Trump’s bold way of negotiating trade ate a bit of crow this month. That includes this Iowa senator,” Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) writes in the Des Moines Register.

“I’m not a big fan of tariffs. So, when the president imposed tariffs as leverage in world trade talks, I was skeptical. And yet, here we are starting the fourth year of his presidency and President Trump has succeeded in securing two major trade agreements that are good for America and good for Iowa.”

President Trump is signing the new U.S.–Mexico–Canada Agreement (USMCA), which replaces the outdated NAFTA, at the White House today.

“White House lawyers gave their Democratic foes a dose of their own medicine at President Trump’s impeachment trial Tuesday — by playing old video clips in which New York pols such as Rep. Jerry Nadler and Sen. Chuck Schumer railed against embarking on the extraordinary measure when it’s politically polarizing.” White House Counsel Pat Cipollone told them, “You were right,” Kate Sheehy reports for the New York Post.
“President Trump just offered the most realistic plan in decades for an Israeli-Palestinian settlement. It won’t work magic overnight, but it shifts the conversation in the right direction. A long string of US presidents tried to solve all the problems of the Middle East by pushing Israel to sacrifice its security and even its identity as a Jewish state,” the New York Post editorial board writes.
“In their latest impeachment effort, Democrats argue that their case is ‘overwhelming’ and that their facts are ‘uncontested.’ Yet, Democrats are demanding additional witnesses.” They can’t have it both ways, Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) writes in USA Today.
“CNN is arousing the ire of conservatives for a segment in which a network host and two political pundits giggle as they make fun of the alleged ignorance of Donald Trump and his voters. The odd exchange obscures how little the CNN guys know about the story they’re supposed to be covering,” James Freeman writes in The Wall Street Journal.
