-mexico-canada agreement called usmca. [applause] usmca. be the name that 99% of the time we will be hearing, usmca. i have long contended nafta was perhaps the worst trade deal ever made. since nafta, the united states racked up trade deficits totaling over $2 trillion, and it is a much higher number than that. mexico lost vast amounts of money, and lost 4.1 million manufacturing, and one in four auto jobs, about 25% of auto jobs. throughout the campaign, i promised to renegotiate nafta, and today we have kept that promise. but for 25 years as a civilian, a businessman, i used to say, how could anybody has signed a deal like nafta? i watched new england, so many places where i was, just the factories were leaving, the jobs were leaving, people were being fired. we can't have that. so we have negotiated this new agreement, based on the principle of fairness and reciprocity. to me, it is the most important word in trade, because we have been treated so unfairly, by so many nations all over the world, that we are changing that. i just signed
