Well on the issue of the TPA Ted Cruz is certainly betraying you.
He is trying to trick you by saying it allows 60 days, hence the name “fast track”, to debate.
The actual number of days right now is unlimited. However, Cruz is trying to act like he is expanding the debate time when they are actually LIMITING debate time to ONLY 60 days.
Moreover, he is not telling you that the TPA LOWERS THE VOTING STANDARDS, put in by George Washington over 200 years ago, to pass Trade Agreement, agreements, treaties, etc.. by changing the vote from 2/3 to 51% to pass.
So YES you are being betrayed by Ted Cruz.
2ndDivisionVet, This is prima facie evidence of a lack of proper civics education in American schools. Civics once covered American history and the US Constitution in High School.

Well “Enlightened”, number one George Washington did not put in voting standards and number two the 2/3s vote you refer to is a constitutional requirement that applies to treaties and the US Senate. It does not apply to trade agreements.
