Trump Privately Eyes USMCA Exit He Negotiated

President Trump privately questions aides on why the U.S. shouldn't withdraw from the USMCA trade pact he signed in his first term, ahead of its mandatory July 2026 review. The deal, which replaced NAFTA, faces uncertainty as Trump calls it irrelevant and pushes for better terms to protect American workers from unfair trade. USTR Jamison Greer notes the current agreement fails to serve U.S. interests fully, with ongoing talks amid tariff tensions with Canada and Mexico.
