Every President negotiates individual itemized trade agreements that provide for tariffs and regulations of the trade between our country and others. This has been the case since the beginning of our nation. GATT has existed since after WWII and Clinton's predecessor, George Herbert Walker Bush negotiated and pushed for the expansion and revamping of GATT. It just happened to finish up with obtaining the approval of the other countries during Clinton's first term of office.
There were no more Free Trade Agreements until George W. Bush was elected and the Trade Promotion Authority known as TPA was revived by the US Congress in 2002. It had expired in 1994 and the US Congress refused to renew it...until George W. Bush came into office who wanted it so he could pick up where his Daddy left off selling out our nation.
I am no fan of Bill Clinton ... but he is not and I repeat NOT responsible for the Free Trade Nightmare and the Immigration Disaster destroying the United States.
Two Bushes are responsible for trade and open borders to end our nation. George Herbert Walker Bush and his son George Walker Bush.
