Great pic.

I wish I knew why he voted for TPP, but it’s my obligation to read up on it.

Get your fact straight, will you? TPP is not up for a vote yet.

No one has voted on TPP so please do your research.

Of course not, one only reads what one cares about. I research. I believe he voted for the Corker bill. He did NOT vote for TPP. Rubio cast the 60th vote that passed it through the senate. Now you can look at trumpasm and see he supported it. Fortunately he did see the light and voted no. Not that any of this matters, trump lovers don’t care about any of his lies or flip flops or character. And you will be so screwed if Trump is president and makes judicial appointments, especially SCOTUS.

First TPP is the trade deal, and hasn’t been voted on. The senate hasn’t been in session since the 18th of december.
Secondly he has voted for TPA (Trade Promotion Authority) Try this link might be helpful.

This is one of the common attacks against Ted, however no one ever takes the time to look it up and see what the difference is. You can be for one, and against the other and still remain true to your conservative principles.
