The large majority of conservatives support free trade, they’re been trying to pass fast track for at least 20 years. Protectionism (ie supporting TAXES on imports) is the lib position and protectionist propaganda and fear mongering is tiresome. Cruz is in the right.

Republicans have in fact been the greatest promoters of free trade. Have you noticed they don’t campaign that much on it, with all the jobs lost due to it and 93 million Americans unemployed. If Obama is for it, and if George Soros is for it, and factoring in the end of national sovereignty Senator Sessions has revealed about it, how on earth can Cruz be right?

Did you completely ignore the article, or just don't care if they are willing to sell the Republic?

Congress gives up its ability to amend any trade deals under fast track, severely limits the ability to debate and lowers the vote threshold in the Senate from 61 to 51. The 11 international parties negotiating with Obama on TPP refuse to sign their dotted lines until Congress agrees to pre-agree to behemoth global trade pacts — sight unseen.
