Ted’s willingness to ditch his base over this means there are things he wants us to learn about the whole issue.
You can be sure his political opponents are breathless at his braveness on the issue.
Who knows what’s in the classified sections? that half the members of the Pacific countries might be savaged by earthquakes and tsunamis in the near future, stuff like that? I despise the secrecy too but there is something that made Ted take his stand.
I’m looking forward to candid explanations from him this weekend.. this has been the most miserable political week I can remember.
“Who knows what’s in the classified sections?”
Who is a trade agreement kept classified from? The Asian governments know what is in it. The multinationals who wrote it know whats in it. And the US Presidency knows whats in it.
The only people who may not read it, is the American people. Dows anybody know how deranged it is that we are passing a law that cannot be examined at every stage of the process?
Cruz is probably for it because he is running for POTUS. Big donors want it. I can have some sympathy for him in this regard, because the moneybags control things.
this has been the most miserable political week I can remember.
