laughter look it's been a terrible deal for the United States people are starting to see it we lose over a hundred billion dollars a year with Mexico we lose many many many billions of dollars with Canada Canada doesn't take I mean they're very restrictive as to taking our agricultural product and other things and you know all of these countries including the European Union they charge five times to tear we don't charge tariffs essentially they charge five times what we charge for tariffs and I believe in the word reciprocal you're going to charge five times we're
gonna charge five times that hasn't been done no other president ever brought it up and it's gonna be done now so we're negotiating numerous deals we're talking about NAFTA to be honest with you I wouldn't see naps I wouldn't mind saying NAFTA where you'd go by a different name will you make a separate deal with Canada and a separate deal with Mexico because you're talking about a very different two countries but I wouldn't mind seeing a separate deal with Canada where you have one type of products so to speak and a separate deal with Mexico
these are two very different countries it's been a lousy deal for the United States from day one we lose a lot of money with Canada and we lose a fortune with Mexico and it's not gonna happen like that I mean Mexico has taken our car companies a big percentage of and we can't do that and look the American worker agrees with me obviously the stock market agrees because when you look at what's going on with the stocks this starting to see them right but if you take the European Union and you see the kind of
tariffs they charge and then we don't that's called not a fair trade I want fair trade I like free trade but I want fair trade at a minimum I want fair trade and we're gonna happen for our workers and for our companies and you know what the other side understands it to be honest with you they cannot believe that they've gotten away with this for so many decades what do you say that they're our allies but they take advantage of us economically and so I agree I love Canada I love Mexico I love them but
Mexico's make it over a hundred billion dollars a year and they're not helping us with our border because they have strong laws and we have horrible laws we have horrible border laws they have strong they could solve our border from but they don't want to and when they want to then I'll be happy but I think we have a good chance of doing some great trade deals that will make America great again right that's what we're doing but America has picked up we've made about eight trillion dollars in value since you know we're double the
size of the economy of China we picked up a lot of value a lot of wealth since I've been president more than eight trillion dollars and that's a very low number because we're talking stock market wealth I'm talking about beyond that our companies are doing great we're doing great our military's rebuilding we have a lot of great things going we're going to straighten out trade the trade is going to be easy and other countries understand you know when they when I talk to them they look at me and this is in closed doors not for
you people and they essentially say we can't believe we've gotten away with this for so long it's like you guys can't believe you've gotten away with it I want everyone to watch because I'll tell you what this we have such a great we have such a great country right now at this level I don't think we've ever been when an economic scared you look at the numbers 3.8 percent we have the lowest numbers of unemployment that we've had is it 50 years I think it's 50 50 years right so we have the best we have
some of the best economic numbers we've ever had as a nation and that goes a long way and we're building something very special just remember we're twice the size our economy twice the size of China
