What do you think Trump will negotiate first

A new Mexican and Canadian trade deal better than the previous one he gave up, or a new Iran nuclear deal better than the old one he gave up.

I'm leaning toward him getting neither done because he's a lazy corrupt moron.

2. None of the above because as you already stated in your last line, nothing in it for him so he's not interested.

Neither is a priority over the ballroom, the arc, the golf course, the scams and bribes, his new jet, etc., etc. He's got a lot on his plate - he's a busy guy....

3. Worth noting: the Mex-Can-US deal he is bailing on is *HIS* deal. Every time he calls it stupid/unfair/bad recall that.

So he is already one step ahead on the repeat-failure treadmill on that one. He exited one deal, made a new one, and now is exiting that one too.

But all indications are that he will be pulling out of/violating his own Iran deal in an irrevocable way sooner than later. So parity may be restored yet.

"I can't be anywhere that doesn't have a ballroom I can hide in when the shooting starts."

"Gee Don, maybe if you hadn't turned pissing people off into a full-scale industry you wouldn't have to worry about the shooting starting."
