Trade deals are independent of politics once signed, that the whole idea. She - nor any other politician wouldn't be able to change anything.
All decisions would be the WTOs or another trade body. So they could tell us to change or eliminate any law or policy thats deemed to be a trade barrier or face sanctions. Which could be substantial.

They work here. They are staffing firms and their workers being moved around are intra-corporate transfers.
Informally, managers can be up to seven years and workers up to five. Then they rotate in somebody else.
