Fact Checks (2)

"U.S. has a 60 billion dollar trade deficit with Mexico"

Mostly True

The 2016 US goods trade deficit with Mexico was approximately $63.2 billion. Including services reduces the figure. The $60 billion figure is a reasonable approximation for goods alone.

"It has been a one-sided deal from the beginning of NAFTA"

Mostly False

NAFTA produced benefits for all three member nations. US gained cheaper consumer goods, expanded export markets, and integrated supply chains. The 'one-sided' characterization ignores these dimensions.
