White House trade and manufacturing policy advisor Peter Navarro appears on Fox News to discuss two key economic and trade issues: (1) the current status of U.S-China trade discussions “round one”; and (2) the status of USMCA ratification (Pelosi’s delay).
Nothing in the China trade discussion is solid, until everything in the China trade discussion is settled; this is one of the key aspects to President Trump’s directive to USTR Robert Lighthizer. No deal is a more favorable outcome than the construct of a trade deal that cannot be enforced.
On the USMCA ratification, again it all falls upon the politics of Pelosi. The agreement would pass tomorrow if it were put up to a vote; there is no controversy. Speaker Pelosi is holding back the ratification vote for pure political purposes.
.
USMCA ratification is the first domino in long-chain of ‘America First’ economic benefits. As soon as USMCA passes a wave of North American investment will surge. The downstream consequences includes leverage for U.S-China, U.S-Europe, U.S-India and U.S-U.K trade agreements.

Trudeau has still not attempted to pass the USMCA agreement in Parliament (as some are aware) and according to recent interviews etc, it’s a low or non priority for the Liberals and the official opposition Conservatives as the video below indicates.
The new Parliamentary session reconvenes on Dec 5th and will end on Dec 13. The first 6 days of will be involve the parties debating Trudeau’s new Budget. The USMCA was not been mentioned in any press releases I’ve found. If Trudeau finally gets approval to pass the trade deal from his wacky boss Pelosi, it’s uncertain if any of the Conservatives, the NDP or the Bloc Quebecois will agree to vote YES. Nobody mentions it. Trudeau needs 13 votes from those parties to pass any legislation. The USMCA might pass during this time but it also might not so the Dem House can delay any vote until long after New Years or whenever Trudeau reopens Parliament.

The only way Pelosi would bring up USMCA for a vote is if the Democrats are in a position where they HAVE TO change the subject / distract from something. If their impeachment clown show royally blows up in their face or the IG report comes out and really slams them that may do the trick. Other than that, they know giving Trump a win, especially this one, kills any chance to win in the 2020 election.

She can’t pause the impeachment in order to allow Trump to do something that only the President can do (sign legislation), as the whole premise of the impeachment is that Trump isn’t really President and can’t lawfully exercise the powers of that office. Once they admit he is and can, they make obvious that the “impeachment inquiry” itself is an unlawful abuse of power by Congress and interference with the President’s Constitutional authority to conduct foreign policy and appoint his own executive staff.
