Last Saturday marked 100 Days in Trump's presidency. The first 100 Days is a time to make an impression on the country that may (or may not) last on the country for the next (roughly) 1,300 days to come. It has been an eventful 100 days, and it may be hard to put a finger on what has been most significant concerning it, but his agreement not to terminate NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement) has a huge impact on America and all of North America in general.

At one point during his campaign, he called NAFTA a "total disaster", but both Mexico and Canada persuaded him the other way. Mexican president Enrique Peña Nieto even stated, "I would really appreciate if we could negotiate instead of you terminating, because terminating sets a lot of things in motion that could be pretty devastating for a lot of people." Trump seemed to reconsider the different parts of America, especially those functioning agriculturally, that would potentially be hit from terminating this deal from 1994.

Nebraskan Republican and Senator, Ben Sasse, even stated, "Yes, there are places where our agreements could be modernized but here's the bottom line: trade lowers prices for American consumers and it expands markets for American goods. Risking trade wars is reckless, not wise." Trump's campaign thrived off of creating jobs for Americans and economic success in the long run. If NAFTA were to be terminated, 14 million US jobs would go with it, according to the US Chamber of Commerce. Reconsidering NAFTA especially benefits states like Sasse's Nebraska: a territory that thrives off of agricultural trade.

Of course Trump won't allow NAFTA to continue exactly as it has, claiming that, for example, that there will be heavier taxes on softwood lumber and negotiation regarding Canadian milk pricing. Even though NAFTA is being reconsidered, there will be plenty continued appraisal regarding it.

At this point, we can only hope that Mexico, Canada and the United States come to some consensus that will help continue to have our countries thrive off of one another.
