And according to Senator Sessions and others, it's also proven impossible to defeat any so-called free trade agreement WITH the fast track process.
You all say that I’ve set-up Cruz as a god, but haven’t you done the same for Sessions?
Jeff Sessions, the new “Hero” on Free Trade. How about this vote on China?

I thought this one was interesting. I didn’t think TPP even included China.
Vote to give permanent Normal Trade Relations [NTR] status to China. Currently, NTR status for China is debated and voted on annually.

As an "opponent" of TPP why is Cruz enabling it's passage with his strong advocacy for TPA? The answer to that question is he really doesn't oppose TPP but doesn't want his fingerprints on its passage. Cruz is playing here the worst sort of McConnell two step. After supporting him without hestitation for the past two years this gives me a feeling of betrayal. Was Cruz really fighting the good fight for us the past two years or was he just strutting about trying to create a donor list?
We should be very, very troubled by the half truths in this piece. This isn't debate club here. This trade deal is an historic event unworthy of such talking points. Cruz is destroying his credibility with this incessant Boehneresque dissembling.
Cruz needs to stop this "moderate" preening and pandering to big donors or he can forget being POTUS.
