TPA-1 (good) ==> sausage plant ==> TPA-2 (bad)
Please watch this video. Ted Cruz described the situation around the votes for TPA and Corker's bills.
No sale. There is no excuse for Cruz’s vote to end the filibuster on TPA, thereby helping it clear the 60 vote hurdle, which was the only chance to stop TPA and about 98% the only chance to stop TPP.
All that laborious and unconvincing explanation from Cruz has been posted many times before. The critical moment was the 60 votes needed to advance TPA and Cruz cast his vote to advance it.
Hey, thanks for posting!
BTW, the link for “Breaking: Cruz Campaign Responds to Conservatives Upset over Trade Vote” is not working. Can you try again. Thanks!
Bookmarking your post. You provided more info on TPA/TPP than any other. I have young people asking me questions, hearing the Cruz attack on this and I needed some clear info to help them understand. They want a Conservative but are easily confused by the Agit-Prop of the conspiracy theorists.
