Funny that you think the deal is bigger than people in Congress since the USMCA was drafted and passed by Congress.

Increases market access for U.S. farmers with new export opportunities for U.S. dairy, poultry and egg producers. Addresses longstanding non-tariff barriers to the ability of U.S. producers to export wheat and wine to Canada. Prevents trade barriers disguised as food safety and animal or plant health measures by requiring such measures to be based on sound science. Improves the transparency and functioning of approval processes for biotech crops. Auto Rules of Origin
New rules will increase U.S. jobs in automotive sector by incentivizing production in the United States and North America. By encouraging companies to use more U.S. content and high wage labor, USMCA will help ensure that U.S producers and workers are able to compete on a level playing field. Currency
Requires transparency on currency policies and addresses unfair currency practices. Customs & Trade Facilitation
USMCA will help reduce red tape at the border, reduce costs, and increase predictability for cross-border transactions. Raises the “de minimis” customs thresholds under which U.S. businesses may export to Canada and Mexico with reduced paperwork and without paying taxes or duties. Requires making customs regulations available online. Digital Trade
USMCA will be the first U.S. free trade agreement with a digital trade chapter, creating a strong foundation for the expansion of trade and investment in innovative digital products and services. Prohibits the imposition of tariffs on digital products transmitted electronically. Financial Services
Expands market access for U.S. business to export electronic payments services, investment advice, and portfolio management. Good Governance
Encourages regulations to be written in plain language so that the public can better understand their meaning. Requires most regulations to go through a notice and comment and procedure so the public can see and provide input on proposed regulations. Requires criminal penalties for bribery and corruption, including with respect to interactions with foreign government officials. Intellectual Property
Secures strong protections and enforcement of intellectual property rights to help drive innovation and create economic growth Includes 10 years of regulatory data protection for biologic drugs Continues to provide strong patent protection for innovators by enshrining patentability standards and patent office best practices. Improved protections for trade secrets, including civil and criminal protections, guarantees on the ability to license trade secrets, and protection from unauthorized disclosure by courts and government officials. Labor & Environment
Provides the strongest labor and environment obligations in any U.S. trade agreement and makes them fully subject to the enforcement and dispute settlement. State-Owned Enterprises

I don't think you could explain the differences because you don't really understand what it is you're excited about.

It is a good thing, but I believe too little too late for the election. Between COVID and Trump being a synonym for law & order-->police-->racism in many people's minds, he will struggle in November.
Good chance of both big popular vote and electoral loss.
The media propaganda machine will be the big winner. And, humankind finds out again, that information warfare is very effective.
I'll be voting for Trump, but I'm setting my expectations now for a loss.

Do you think this might have been offset by the reductions in consumer prices for the many manufactured items and clothing that occurred alongside?

Was the bright spot of the 90’s economy.
NAFTA gave us 600k job losses, a $54B trade deficit to Mexico that was a surplus in 1993, and contributes a whopping $400 per person to our $50k per person GDP.
We should have listened to Ross Perot on this and several other topics.

If he'd - not pay off #### stars. - not keep telling people that Ivanka has created 14 million jobs. - not suck up to every dictator in the world and do favors for them. - not ignore science and develop a national plan for Pandemic we're in. - not pose with a bible in front of a church like an idiot.
- and thousands more like the above is why they pick on "poor mr. president" 24/7.
He's a walking target, he makes so many goofs it's not even fun anymore.
