Nobody especially cares whether it’s Constituional. People oppose it because it sucks for America and Americans, and is bound to be gamed by insiders like every other damned thing in this corrupt government.

Republicans with Conservative & Democrat help, pass TPA.

Nancy get's her mind right, Rinos & Dems pass TPP.

Conservatives vote no on TPP and claim it's passage it not their fault.

The progressives wouldn’t even allow us to withdraw from the SALT treaties, after the USSR collapsed and ceased to exist. No one CARES if it ever benefits US! It will NEVER go away.

>>People oppose it because it sucks for America and Americans<<

I oppose it on the basis of the lack transparency. This could be the deal of the century, but by not allowing the American people to read it in it’s entirety, it’s screams of abuse.

If you can’t bring it into the light, it must not pass.

Exactly. Just because it's Constitutional doesn't mean it's good. There's a ton of "Constitutional" stuff that's extremely bad for this country.

TPA forces bad provisions to remain, because the agreement can't be amended.

To me, this artificial creation of pressure to pass is just a bad idea in general.

Congress is supposed to be a deliberative body. So let them deliberate over all these provisions written and engineered by various special interests who, believe it or not, mihgt not have the best interests of the People in mind.

Let the world wait for the USA.

And if they want to proceed without us, then see where that gets them.

They ALL want access to our markets.

So let them wait, and let Congress slog through it like the deliberative body they're supposed to be.

"Hurry! Hurry! Hurry! It's an emergency! We have to get this done NOW or the universe will explode!"

What a crock...
