I predict many around here will be singing the praises of TPA when President Trump needs it for his great trade deals. They’ll be thankful that the Democrats can’t attach amendments to stop Trump’s negotiations. You watch. It’ll happen.
You may be correct, however, while TPP may well retain it’s name, under TRUMP it will have to be so reconstructed to meet his financial security goals for the USA, that it may be quite unrecognizable from the free form it represents today.
Jeff Sessions is all over this partnership deal and both he and TRUMP abhor its present form.
