President Donald Trump said Thursday he's "no rush" to complete a new deal on the North American Free Trade Agreement after U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer said he was hopeful for a breakthrough in the next few days. At a cabinet meeting, Trump said he wants to make the right deal and "if we don't have a breakthrough, don't do the deal." The president also repeated he wants a federal lawsuit against companies supplying opioids, echoing a demand he made in March. Trump again said Pastor Andrew Brunson, whose detainment by Turkey has soured that country's relations with the U.S., is an "innocent man." Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said extra sanctions are ready if Brunson is not released.
