Lawyer, william burke. However, the lawyer then says but they were okay with giving this information over. This administration isnt. Make some sense of this for me. Well, i think the thing to think about is this, im not sure at the end of the day how much difference its going to make. Partly this is a matter of arithmetic. The republicans simply have the votes. But secondly while this will be, and you can count on it, that the democrats will be following joe bidens advice, theyll be saying how can we vote on this guy until we know every possible thing about him. The crucial question will be how will he vote as a judge, what can we learn from his time on the Court Of Appeals here in the district of columbia. I think thats where the bulk of the questions will be. Whats going to be new and different about this Confirmation Hearing is questions about how far you can go in subpoenaing or possibly indicting or other Legal Process against a sitting president. That becomes important obviously
in 2017 the u.s. and canada traded $673 billion in goods and services. the u.s. had a trade surplus with canada of more than $8 billion. i don t know how the president sees this as abusive. since nafta took effect, exports of u.s. goods to canada are up 181%. service exports are up 243%. abusive much, mr. president? in addition, nearly 2 million jobs in canada are tied to canadian exports to the united states. nearly 9 million american jobs depend on trade and investment with canada. and putting this in a much wider perspective, canada is the top international destination for exports from 36 u.s. states. so, if these negotiations fail or the president pulls the plug on nafta, the impact is going to be felt on both sides of the border. that is a closer look at nafta and that bringds this hour to a close for me. thank you for watching. and enjoy the rest of your labor
they are in the white house right now, we re negotiating with them right now. they want to be part of the deal. let s take a quick look at how canada is heavily intwined in the united states economic and employment picture. canada is america s second largest trading partner after china. last year the countries traded more than $673 billion in goods and services and the united states had a trade surplus of nearly 8 1/2 billion dollar, something the president continues to deny to be true. according to data compiled by the canadian embassy and the u.s. department of labor, about 6.4% of american jobs, in total, are depend president on canadian trade and investment. at least that was as late as we have numbers for in 2013. that s nearly 9 million americans. south carolina, new york, georgia, and north dakota are among the states with the highest number of jobs dependent on trade and investment with our northern neighbor. we re continuing to keep our eye on trade talks in washington and b
influence they have on trade, on the other side, who influences it just as much, the u.s. consumer. and we buy a ton of stuff. i often wonder does this administration know the difference between a budget deficit and a trade deficit? before we go, i want you to look at this screen next to me. this shows the trading relationship. and that s what you to have. a relationship. trade is two ways. 673 billion with can a. 616 billion with mexico. 1 .1 trillion with europe. sara eisen just wrap this on the best part. we re part of a global economy whether we like it or not. we re not going back to the i and i alone word. amazon became one of the most powerful companies in the world because you and me decided we wanted cheap stuff really fast delivered to our door. thank you all so much. i know this conversation is not ending any time soon. don t forget about that map.
over ten years, $337 billion, that s because it makes about $1.2 trillion in cuts, and then proceeds to spend, it says, $.9 trillion, according to to the cbo. and that spending comes in the form of cutting taxes as well as offering about $360 million in those tax credits. those are aimed at helping people buy insurance. but, what you re cutting is medicaid. $880 billion worth of cuts to medicaid. and you re cutting those subsidies that people who are toosh make too much money to qualify but don t make enough for insurance, they get $6673 billion over the course of ten years. that medicaid wiped out, those subsidies wiped out, replaced with again, about half as much money in tax credits. and then of course, the rest of the savings comes from excuse
