Apparently, making a trade deal with Great Britain was easy for Trump, while he was also scoring big over the beleaguered President of Mexico. He is showing his skills at making deals on the job!
His major problems are financial. The US debt quagmire and a looming inflation balloon are in the offing; and should reach crisis proportion before the next election of 2018. The looming signs of going protectionist are causing the large international corporations to be weary of bringing large amounts of cash back onto US shores. Plus, they're aware of a surplus capacity of industrial productivity available in the States without much monetary infusion on their part,
Trump's insistence to follow Reagan in an economic time far more complicated than what his mentor had lived through simply bespeaks a mistake in embracing protectionism in a fluid financial market. He's simply philosophically naïve and outmoded; and the US will become a relic, if Congress embraces his charming enchantment. Did Reagan ever conceive of the effects of AI intelligence upon governmental and private transactions? Did Reagan know of the Internet and of cybernetic systems? Come on, times are significantly different from the 1980s, But Trump and Putin, too, are apparently unaware that in today's marketplace there's no "Again" only a creative "Newness and Wonder" over what is evolving into an uncharted tomorrow.
