“There are no golden moments.” — Tom West
It seems that almost everything is in a slow walk these days:
USMCA (NAFTA 2.0) ratification
North Korea and Iran denuclearizing
China trade deal
Fully fixing (or replacing) Obamacare
Securing our Mexico border and immigration reform
European trade dealings
Reduction of the national deficit
Some of this sloth is politically inspired by next year’s election. However, President Trump seems to have taken most of these delays in stride. He is showing remarkable patience and little frustration. Remarkable!
Perhaps building skyscrapers always involves frustrating delays ... so Trump has gotten used to the perpetual slow walk ...
Maybe his detractors take offense at his day-one promises becoming slow-walked to make it to the next election. Like a NYC hi-rise builder, The Donald razes productive sites with the promise of a big beautiful replacement. And all we see is parking lots with coming-soon signs and nothing filed with the city's planning board. Sad.
