Donald Trump thinks he invented the phrase "priming the pump." That's telling. - CNNPolitics.com

'Priming the pump' was not invented by Donald Trump

Dear OP

what you cite above is a prime example of why progressives and their tag team MSM, Hollywood, etc are failing . They focus on minutiae because that's all they got. Never once during the Obama years did they have to face the fires. always softball questions, always surrounding the wagons to protect their malfeasance. serious security breaches, ignoring the US Constitution...all were ignored, hidden, explained away.

Now we have an Administration that has the ability and tenacity to deal with real national problems and their response is " Trump did not invent "prime the pump" really...that's all you got

Its a past reminder of Obama "you didn't build that"government built that........

Please write your representatives and tell them the Democratic Party needs to be rebuilt because its weak and its misguided. We need two political parties who truly have America and Americans best interests at heart.

"General Electric Co's chief executive (GE.N) on Friday praised Mexico as a big part of its future growth and said the company is "very supportive" of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) that U.S President Donald Trump has threatened to ditch.

The conglomerate is keen to double its purchases from Mexican suppliers next year, a statement from the office of Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto said, a move that could upset Trump, who touts a "Buy American" policy and has railed against U.S. firms that move operations to Mexico.

Chief Executive Jeff Immelt, on a visit to Mexico, did not mention GE's interest in ramping up purchases in Mexico in a speech in the northern city of Monterrey, but he said Mexico was a big part of the company's future growth plans."

"(Reuters Breakingviews) - China's dealmakers edged out their U.S. counterparts in their first round of trade talks. U.S. beef producers and financial firms will get more access to Chinese markets in exchange for chicken imports and a potential opening for Chinese banks. It’s a good start but Beijing didn’t give up much.

President Donald Trump's administration, eager for a win amid a furor over his firing of the FBI chief, was quick to crow about trade concessions wrangled from the People's Republic of China. The deal is part of a 100-day plan hashed out when Trump met Chinese President Xi Jinping in April.

American enterprises like Visa and Mastercard will get access to the Chinese market and two banks will get bond underwriting licenses. "I have a new boss who's very demanding that things get done on time,” Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross told CNBC. “So I'm quite relieved that we had tangible achievements.”
