Globalism is the enemy.
Economic Nationalism is the cure.
NOTE WELL: few, if any, of the RCEP and TPP countries contributed to the buck-raking Clinton Foundation. Looks like the Clintons and Obama divvied up the globe so that each have their own countries in order to collect big buck foundation donations, honorarium, consultancies, and int'l insider business deals.
==============================================
WIKI REFERENCE: Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) is a proposed free trade agreement (FTA) between the ten member states of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) (Brunei, Burma (Myanmar), Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam) and the six states with which ASEAN has existing FTAs (Australia, China, India, Japan, South Korea and New Zealand). RCEP negotiations were formally launched in November 2012 at the ASEAN Summit in Cambodia.
==================================================
The trade deal giveaway is a huge scam...best examined against the backdrop of Obama's two tax-exempt foundations (that we know of).
THE FACTS ARE THESE Obama's priming the pump for donations to his two Foundations. All of it---TPA and TPP--Obama's immigration suck-ups---his non- action WRT ISIS, IRAN---are best understood against the backdrop of Obama's future plans as an ex-president----more specifically, his two Foundations (two that we know of).
The aforementioned entities control billions of dollars---and Obama is lying-in-wait for his share.
Just the other day--Obama proudly bragged that today, once again, the US is the most respected country on earth.
So it doesnt matter Putin continues his invasion of Ukraine....
Or that China knows it can continue grabbing key sea areas, building vast artificial islands on which to plant its flag (and weapons). Or that Bashar al-Assad is back to using chemical weapons, because Obama won't enforce his own red line."
As for Iran: Its already breaking the interim US nuclear deal by building enriched-uranium stockpiles far larger than it promised. Iraq? In the same town-hall, Obama talks of how we were able to end two wars."
=========================================
Obama learned from the Clintons how to get a big payday for his two foundations: look on w/ approval even if countries invade and depopulate.....and never e-v-e-r utter a discouraging word e-v-e-r.
Maybe even shake hands w/ foreign tyrants to get mining permits and million dollar honorariums as Clinton did in Kazakhstan.
