Quoted in Paul Krugman’s New York Times column, “At the Mercy Of the Mind Of Tariff Man” — concerning Trump’s “ignorant, volatile and delusional” ideas about trade and trade wars. My bolding:
When trying to make deals, he seems to care only about whether he can claim a “win,” not about substance. he has been touting the “U.S. Mexico Canada Trade Agreement” as a repudiation of NAFTA, when it’s actually just a fairly minor modification. (Nancy Pelosi calls it “the trade agreement formerly known as Prince.”)
