        Speaking as a US citizen, you aren’t wrong. I wouldn’t make agreements with the US unless it is February of an odd numbered year.

        ETA: Late January of odd years is when we get a new president or a new Congress. I say February so there is time for the transition.

        Didn’t mean to sound passive-aggressive, sorry if it came across that way. I just don’t want people to throw their hands up in despair. We need to fight back, and know that fighting back works.

          Eh I didn’t catch it that way. I just wanted Americans to have the facts. You’re right, the way I wrote it seemed pretty defeatist, considering I left out that we reaccepted the agreement.

          But this is why the fediverse is supposed to be great. You filled in more facts for me that I failed to include! Now hopefully others well read this and be more informed! 😁
