All of the Republican candidates support the trade agreement...
Actually, Rick Perry no longer supports...
I believe Huckabee, Fiorina and Carson don’t support, either.
Rick Perry supported it till it became an issue then he tucked his tail between his legs and retreated.
Huckabee is a liberal doing a bad conservative imitation.
As far as Fiorina is concerned I haven’t looked to see where she stands and stood on the issue but again, she’s not a conservative.
The Cruzers are going Alinsky on us. First they give us half truth BS CYA, then distractions (”they all did it”), then bullying, then insults. If all that doesn’t get us back on the Cruz plantation, it’s ignore list.
Really, really sad to see what I thought was a great man and his dead end supporters crash and burn so badly.
Perry obliviously has his finger in the air on this issue. Also Paul voted against TPA in the Senate as did Sessions, Lee, Collins and Shelby. Strange to have Paul, Sessions and Lee on one side of an issue and Cruz on the other. Very strange.
Actually, Governor Perry, Huckabee, and Fiorina and weather vane politicians. They stick their wet finger in the air and see which way the wind blows.
Moreover, none of the three have read the evolving text of TPP.

When at H-P, if her Government Department was hammering out a trade agreement with China, would she have wanted the Chinese to see all the details in the trade file from H-P side before a final agreement? NO
