President Trump Kills TPP Once And For All With Executive Order Officially Withdrawing
Breitbart ^ | 01/23/17 | Matthew Boyle

Posted on 01/23/2017 12:45:45 PM PST by Enlightened1

President Donald J. Trump killed the Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP) once and for all on Monday, signing an executive order officially withdrawing from the trade deal negotiations. It came as a part of series of three separate executive actions that President Trump took on Monday.

“The first is a withdrawal of the United States from the Trans Pacific Partnership,” White House chief of staff Reince Priebus said, explaining the first executive action President Trump was taking in the list of three. The other two were one freezing hiring of all federal employees except in the military, and one that restores the Mexico City policy.

As President Trump signed the executive action killing the TPP, he announced for the cameras in the oval office that it was a “great thing for the American worker, what we just did.”

Trump campaigned heavily against TPP, so it’s only fitting he’d crush it once and for all on his first business day as President of the United States. It’s his efforts campaigning against it—and the efforts of failed presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT)—that shook Washington’s political establishment, and eventually forced failed Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Rodham Clinton to come out against the deal that was supposed to be a legacy achievement of now former President Barack Obama.

Trump hammered TPP repeatedly throughout his campaign and even leading up to it in speeches and interviews, including many exclusive interviews with Breitbart News.

For instance, back in May 2015—when many Republicans were in favor of TPP and before he announced his campaign—Trump told Breitbart News exclusively in an interview that the TPP was a “disaster” of a deal.

I just LOVE looking at the photo of our new POTUS sitting at the Oval Office desk!! :0)

And I really doubt he will EVER put his feet up on that desk (like Bammy and W shamefully did.)

For his next Executive Order he needs to have those gawdawful curtains taken down. They make the Oval Office look like a cheap Virginia City whorehouse.

He just had them put up.

I read somewhere that all the furnishings currently in use in the Oval Office are those of previous presidents. I can’t remember who the curtains were used by. I’ll have to see if I can find the article again.

By the way, nothing is cheap in Virginia City and I’m pretty sure they don’t have whorehouses.

Thanks - I slid around some of the HTML and added a blink - which doesn’t work in my browser - because blink is officially bad, anymore.
