Trump to Sign Executive Orders to Withdraw From TPP, Renegotiate NAFTA

Leah Barkoukis / Townhall Tipsheet

President Trump will sign executive orders as soon as Monday announcing his intentions to renegotiate NAFTA and withdraw from the Trans-Pacific Partnership, according to multiple reports.

"We're going to start some negotiations having to do with NAFTA," Trump said Sunday.

Meetings had been scheduled with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto, he added.

"Anybody ever hear of NAFTA?" he said. "I ran a campaign somewhat based on NAFTA. But we're going to start renegotiating on NAFTA, on immigration, on security at the border."

As a candidate, Trump also vowed to kill the 12-country TPP, which hasn’t been enacted yet.

He will instead start individual trade negotiations with the countries in the partnership, NBC News reported.

Those who will head up the new deals include Commerce Secretary nominee Wilbur Ross, U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer and the head of the White House Trade Council, Peter Navarro.

Before taking office Trump said withdrawing from the TPP would be one of his first orders of business, calling the trade deal a “potential disaster for our country.”

"We are at the very beginning stages of even discussing this subject," White House spokesman Sean Spicer said in a statement. 

 

WASHINGTON -- The Trump administration has begun deliberations over whether to move its embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, White House press secretary Sean Spicer said on Sunday. 

"We are the very beginning stages of even discussing this subject," Spicer said in a statement.

One adviser to US President Donald Trump, Kellyanne Conway, has said it is a top priority for the new administration, which took office just three days ago.

Conway said that Middle East peace would be a topic of conversation in Trump's first phone call with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, taking place this hour.

Robert Spencer: Why Barack Obama is the worst President in U.S. history

By Robert Spencer / THE GELLER REPORT 

Our long national nightmare didn’t end on January 20. That’s because Barack Hussein Obama has planted seeds that will be bearing bitter fruit for years, and probably decades, to come. He is the worst President in American history. Fillmore, Pierce, Buchanan? Yes, the doughface Presidents made the Civil War inevitable, but worse came later. Grant? Blind to corruption and out of his depth, but there have been worse than he as well. Wilson? That black-hearted Presbyterian bigot arguably gave the world Hitler and World War II, so he is definitely in the Final Four. Harding? Nah: his tax cuts and return to “normalcy” got the American economy, and the Twenties, roaring. FDR and LBJ gave us the modern welfare state and dependent classes automatically voting Democrat; the full bill on the damage they did hasn’t yet been presented. Nixon? A crook and an economic Leftist, who betrayed Taiwan for the People’s Republic; his record certainly isn’t good. Carter? Nothing good can be said about his four years of sanctimony and incompetence.

But there is one thing Barack Obama has on all competitors: treason.

Just a Thought...
No Mere Possibility
By: Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor

The British are coming on Friday and less than two weeks later...maybe even within a week...Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will be here. Old alliances and friendships that Obama destroyed are now being reformed and if President Trump can get Russia on board (Vladimir Putin hates the true 'enemy'...the muslims and islam...as much as we do) we can kick some muslim butt BIG time. And with the aid of certain Balkan states, united together we can stop the muslim invasion of Europe and send them back to the cesspools they came from, stop them from ever coming here, and turn the entirety of the Middle East into Israel's personal parking lot. More than mere wishful thinking...a true possibility now that we have a real Commander-in-Chief and a 'Mad Dog' at the helm of America's ship.
