There was never any chance of a boatload of great deals within 90 days, particularly since Trump has no idea what to ask for in order to eliminate most of our bilateral trade deficits. He can’t afford to walk away with completely empty hands, however. As a result, the most likely short-term outcome will be a series of agreements merely to negotiate further, which he will trumpet as a colossal success.
Right. If the agreements come at all, they will take years and be much more limited in scope than the GOP reactionaries want. The beneficiaries will be restricted to a few industries (energy companies, weapons manufacturers, and possibly tech companies) and will do nothing to bring about the Godly Society.
