For all the compelling reasons enumerated in my previous reply.
Why…would you write an op-ed in the WSJ singing the praises of TPP?
I believe the editorial, without checking, was in support of TPA as an indispensable prerequisite for any TPP treaty to be negotiated at all.
Now assured of the passage of TPP
Not true. It could easily be stopped in the House, depending on what Paul Ryan does with it. I ask, if the treaty is so bad why can it not be stopped in either the House or the Senate? What you are really saying is that Ted Cruz should be blamed for not having second sight, he should have anticipated all of the bad features of the multitrillion dollar trade deal and then anticipated that Paul Ryan would be Speaker of the House and that he would slip the treaty through. This is such a departure from reality which is typical of Trump and his supporters to require Cruz to defend against something that is not yet happened and to assume future facts.
Back room deals
Backroom deals? You Trump supporters have been excoriating Ted Cruz because he cannot get along with his colleagues in the Senate when it was Ted Cruz who strode onto the floor of the Senate and called the Majority Leader of his own party a liar to his face. Back room indeed!
It is Trump who claims to have "the art of the deal" as a special gift (remember?) And it is Trump who has made secret deals all his life. Trump's latest deal was just reported today, his secret deal to buy litigants' silence, litigants who had accused him of fraud in the sale of his condos and requiring everyone to otherwise keep the deal secret.
Now, that is later today, we are to believe that once Trump gets ultimate power he will have an epiphany? How big a fool does he take us for?
