Remington’s raison d’être is producing shotguns.
The US’ raison d’être is (hopefully) not knowingly starving millions of people to death. When you’re making a deal of that size (between countries, not a company and consumer) no deal is purely transactional, there are ramifications.

I am not here to metaphorically shit in the yard of the US. It is just business as usual when it comes to politics. Sadly. I just don't expect people to act with integrity when in positions of power. I still like to be pleasantly surprised if it happens - I just don't expect it. Edit: Typo
