Liberal loons keep taking Trump literally. He is going to shred NAFTA. Not with a paper shredder though.

Because the poster never said that Trump wanted to withdraw...he said Trump will not rip up NAFTA. Then he provided you with the quote from Trump saying he would. Read the post title again and then the link. Take your time.

How could you possibly know this with 100% certainty? This is wishful conjecture on your part.

He said that he'd tear it up if he couldn't renegotiate it to benefit America. If he's confident that he can get a better deal, there's no need to rip it up.
You'd think this would be an easy concept to grasp for the board.

So don't take him for his word just kinda make assumptions about what he means?

Liberals are correct, Trump has done nothing as president that he said he would. Nothing.
Oh wait he's not president for another 1.5 months. Fringy Liberal Literal Loons. They really are the best loons folks. I mean 1st class

The President can't rip up these things, you gotta pass stuff in Congress.

So you become a fringe liberal when you expect a person to mean what they say?

This is a fair point since I'm basing it on Trump's own words, which we all know are completely worthless.

Pretty sure he was never going to rip up NAFTA, even though he should.
It needs to be renegotiated. I don't think any sane person really believed we were suddenly going to become some isolationist country behind an Iron Curtain. Trump never said that anyway. He has said numerous times on the trail that he is a "free trader" but wants fair trade deals.
Innovators here in America need to be able to sell their product to foreign countries instead of having them take the idea, produce it cheaply with slave labor, and sell it back to us. Because that's what happens now for the most part.
For example, there is this company in Ohio that makes a specific circuit board that goes into electronic cigarettes (I know this because I vape and own one of their products). It is a start-up company created by a venture capitalist and an engineer he hired to design it. The circuit board is made in Ohio (every piece of it, from the PCB to everything else). Anyway, the CEO said in an interview that he really had a hard time getting his product into China. When he went to visit China (in order to cut deals with Chinese e-cig makers to use his circuit board in their products) he said the customs officials over there said "OK you're here to buy Chinese electronics, right?" He said "No, I am here to sell American electronics." He said the customs official was flabbergasted and could not believe an American company was going to SELL electronics to the Chinese. It's something that just doesn't happen.
Eventually the Chinese got his circuit board, reverse engineered it and began selling clones in their own products. He had a patent in the U.S., but they ignored it. He sued, but good luck with that.

Absolutely. You don't understand how to negotiate anything from a position of power. Nothing.
Put down your 18th century lesbian poetry and read a book called art of the deal.

I always thought "rip it up" meant to renegotiate it to get a more favorable deal for us.
Who in their right minds think Trump is going to rip up NAFTA and disallow trade between Canada and Mexico?

These are official stances from the Office of the President-elect's website. So no, you don't know with 100% certainty.
Now granted, he very well could backtrack on these stances, and if he does I will call him out on it. But if these are official positions of his, I will wait until he is elected to see if he can enact or implement them, unlike you who is so blinded by hatred that you'd rather see him and the country fail

No he didn't. He said he would rip up 'these trade deals'. Trade deals like TPP... Which he has ripped up

No need to make assumptions. If you speak the common tongue, you will know what he means.
