1. In all of the voluminous bodies of work regarding Ronald Reagan, I have yet to come across anything that suggests he regretted the creation of a free trade zone between Canada, Mexico, and the United States.

2. And seriously, no one on this thread is arguing that Reagan “wrote” NAFTA.

You notice how protectionists won't acknowledge that NAFTA was Reagan's idea, or that he kick-started the talks that led to the creation of the WTO?

The attempt to take Reagan's support for eliminating trade barriers between Mexico, Canada, and the U.S. and equate it to "NAFTA was Reagan's idea" are simply stunning.
