Do I have this right? It's good for the US worker if the US lowers to near-zero tariffs on these countries because Chinese wages are too high?

And because we can trust Obama with more authority.

JMHO....Senator Cruz has been spending too much time with those large donors.

Actually, there is ample evidence to the contrary in contrast to his predecessor in the U.S. Senate.

Lest anyone gets the idea that Ted Cruz will accommodate special interests benefiting big business on trade policy for reasons other than the public interest, consider this report:

Senator Ted Cruz opposes reauthorizing the Export-Import Bank of the USA, calling it "crony capitalism." That position has placed him in direct conflict with the strong desires of some large businesses in the No. 1 exporting state of Texas, many of which supported his run for the U.S. Senate and now complain that his conservative ideology trumps their requests for support.
