EXCERPT:
SCHUMER: “Trump would have you believe it’s ‘the biggest deal ever’ — that’s his words — dangling $250 billion of new energy purchases and more in new investments. There’s just one hiccup — it’s fake! Even today’s Wall Street Journal has pierced this miasma of distortion. Even if the EU purchased every dollar of American exports of crude oil and liquefied natural gas, it wouldn’t come close to meeting these promises, something Europe understands. Europe has admitted that this ‘agreement’ isn’t legally binding, and they have no control over whether these investments even happen. If this sounds familiar, it’s because we’ve already seen this show before. In the major agreement with Japan that Trump announced with Japan last week, where he claimed Japan had promised $550 billion in new investment.”
