In an exclusive interview with Breitbart News, GOP presidential candidate and billionaire businessman Donald Trump slammed President Obama’s trade agreements – especially the Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP) – which Obama argued the United States needs in order to better compete with China.
However, according to a recent report by Politico, China may be trying to enter the TPP – defeating Obama’s main argument for finalizing the deal.
“Of course China wants to join the trade negotiation because the deal is so pathetic and so bad,” Trump told Breitbart News.
He added that China would continue to take advantage of America’s stupid politicians, who don’t know what they’re doing.

Say what you will, the Donald is going to make a difference.
The Donald is saying very smart things about TPP…and surprise, surprise, so is Bernie Sanders on the left.
I hope both of these guys get a lot of press coverage...
I don’t care if Trump is conservatively correct on every single issue. He’s a nationalist. We haven’t had a nationalist president since Reagan, and he seems to be the only one running.
The Donald is a jackass but his braying will keep Republican and Democrats awake long into the night
I can only hope Trumps big money screws up the establishments plan for Jeb to win Florida. I sent this link below to Trump last night. It will take major money to overcome in Florida and Trump can put out some ads like Romney did against our conservatives. Furthermore, Trump will go talk to anyone here who wants to give him the floor. lol!
I have to disagree with one thing that Trump said. Our politicians know exactly what they are doing.
Bttt
Yes they do and that is why they deserve a major pounding every day.
If the GOP was a populist party: low immigration, fair trade, not free, real concern for the middle-class & no crony capitalism they would be in great shape. Trump talks this talk which is why he’s intriguing, but I doubt he has the ability to walk that walk.. But I’m happy he’s pounding the elite of both these parties.
I doubt D. Trump has a chance but at least he is speaking out, pushing others towards the right, and is making the race more interesting. But then I also thought in 2008 that the fumbling, bungling J. McCain (who shamelessly pandered to Hispanics and illegals) would surely not win the primaries.
“12. That, while providing revenue for the support of the general government by duties upon imports, sound policy requires such an adjustment of these imports as to encourage the development of the industrial interests of the whole country; and we commend that policy of national exchanges, which secures to the workingmen liberal wages, to agriculture remunerative prices, to mechanics and manufacturers an adequate reward for their skill, labor, and enterprise, and to the nation commercial prosperity and independence.”

Both like tariffs and no cuts in taxes, spending and government regulations?
No matter what you think of Trump for President he’s right on this one.
Trump is right about virtually every single issue.
And everyone else is silent, sitting on the sidelines. Trump is the only one standing up about the big issues.
Anywhere.
Yes and its important to remember that most conservatives have no clue who FR is or ever participate in the forum. They are flooding phone lines like Levin’s and others with support for Trump. I think the polls in a few weeks will reflect that.
Do not listen! Do not listen!
REPEAT AFTER ME;
He is a clown, he is a nut, he is not serious—FORGET HIM!!!
it’s good these issues are getting aired. Trump or not. They need to be discussed.
Absolutely.
Trump is crushing the social media scene, with Facebook reporting that within 24 hours after tossing his hat in the ring, “3.4 million people shared information about Trump 6.4 million times,” making him tops among all Republican contenders.” Trump was also “the most searched GOPer in every state the day of his announcement, and his `search interest’—percentage of national queries for the hour after he announced—was 87 percent.”
