Funny how we managed to "trade" from 1607 to 2016 without the TPP! Amazing!!

But it MUST be passed THIS YEAR!!!

And the usual, moderate republicans, and their lovers in the press want to help.

Cui bono? Or is he doing it on principle?

I think he’s doing it for principAl. Follow the money, or at least the promises of power and influence.

Katich is WaPo’s favorite kind of Republican; a Democrat.

Jennifer Rubin is the “Right Wing” writer at the Washington Post.

Relatively speaking.

Few people outside the beltway, with the exception of a couple counties bordering the beltway, read the Washington Post. They have very little influence on the American political scene.

Kasich has been pathetic in this whole process.

Kasich must have gotten a multi-million dollar payoff to promote this job-killing nonsense. I am so ashamed that this fool is my governor.

Any Republican willing to undermine the chances of a Republican taking the White House will become a darling of the left wing press.

It’s a cheap way to get great press. Brits liked Benedict Arnold after all..

Jebbifer Rubin is still sad that Yeb! did not get to be the Designated Loser this time.

Kaysuck is a traitor to the citizens.
He is in favor of amnesty and trade deals that harm Americans.

Since Previous could go a long to stop this Crap by THROWING HIM OUT OF THE PARTY, then threaten to SUE for trademark and copyright infringement if he EVER calls himself a Republican in any way.

The NAFTA/TPP/One-way Trade deal crowd always use this propaganda line to confuse the facts. Like you succinctly point out, the U.S has always briskly traded with rest of the world which makes this yet another bald face lie from the Globalist ruling class.

Prior to our sad experience with One-Way trade deals, America produced large trade surpluses, had a world leading manufacturing base, and technology that was light years ahead of the rest of the world.

Today, our manufacturing sector is gutted. Our technological know-how has been exported all over the world--enriching other nations while impoverishing ours. And the middle class, predictably, is being squeezed out of existence.

Yeah, Sure, we really need more corporate written trade deals like TPP. If TPP is enacted we are done....and so is any hope of turning this country around.

Can you imagine having to ask an unelected trade minister for permission to make minor changes to OUR trade policies or settle trade disputes? This is Pure Treason!

Rubin is another corporate liberal. Of course she loves Kasich.

The only “irresponsibility on trade” these days are current trade agreements.
