I'm talking about that tough-as-nails Sarah Huckabee Saunders, Trump's press secretary. I watch her often and can't believe how she handles herself in front of the toughest gang in the world. She brucks no bullsh-t. Stands her ground and presses along. Can you imagine how daunting that is!?
But what I wanted to go on about today is the reality that NAFTA is dead, but poor old Freeland didn't see it coming. And now that Trudeau is still pushing keeping Mexico in, neither did he. B said 10 years ago that the only deals any country can negotiate are the bilateral ones. Harper got that, but this bunch?! No clue. Trump has announced he wants separate deals with Canada and Mexico, which is the only way to go. Hello! The original Free Trade Agreement, of which I was proud to have been a part.
The other bush-t underway is the extension of the MMIGW (or whatever it's called). They asked for another two years and $50 million. Two years! To do what?! Listen to more crying and teeth-gnashing for nought? Carolyn Bennett gave them six months, which is still waaaaaay too long, to "Get to the bottom of the systemic problems facing indigenous women," she proffered. We all know what the problem is: The reserve system that traps people in the middle of nowhere with nothing to do except drink, take drugs and kill women.
All so effing useless.
