Its not good for the family that owns the other bridge that bribed trump.
Makes perfect sense when you look at it from that perspective.

If they keep playing games, we could maybe drop a few articles to the news about expropriating the Canadian side of the other bridge. We don’t even necessarily have to do anything else, just watch them spiral when they realize their source of income might disappear.

I don't see it signed before he's out of office.U.S President Donald Trump suggested Wednesday that the U.S. is “better without” the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA) and he even prefers it to be “terminated.”
Trump spoke to reporters at the G7 in France before boarding a flight after attending the G7 summit and his statements come as Canada, the U.S. and Mexico continue to negotiate an extension or replacement for the current trade agreement.
“I would rather not have the agreement, but I may sign it, but we [the U.S.] do better as a country when we don’t have an agreement,” said Trump.
We have an agreement. It’s pretty good one. It remains in place until changed or terminated. Mechanisms for that take time and probably congressional approval. Right now, string him along and rag the puck through the midterms and hopefully a Republican loss of control of Congress. Time is very much on our side.Trump says he would prefer to see CUSMA ‘terminated’ - National | Globalnews.ca

Lets continue to fight them on it.
Eventually he will surrender, give us 300b and allow us to enrich our uranium.

When are we going to finally kick his fat ass out of the country ?
I'm beginning to suspect he couldn't spell diplomacy much less practice it.

Canadian media loves him.
They would cry if he wasn't around giving monthly sound bites and was replaced with an actual diplomat, most of whom we don't know the names of.
(I dare anyone to name 2 more ambassadors without looking it up. I cannot.)

I suspect your right, it suits our ruling class to leave him there instead of declaring him persona non grata.
That being said when the US was doing their annexation talk we should have sent him packing as a very clear statement on where our sovereignty is.
