Duchess47’s comment above yours gives the truth, I am copying below. I can’t believe how Cruzfanbois are willing to lie lie lie lie, it’s embarrassing to even read the fanboi comments.
Senator Ted Cruzs statement that he always opposed TPP is incorrect. He and Representative Paul Ryan co-authored an April 21, 2015 op-ed in the Wall Street Journal (Putting Congress in Charge on Trade) in which they both supported fast-tracking TPP (the Trans Pacific Partnership). Cruz was also incorrect when he implied that TPA is separate from TPP. TPA (Trade Promotion Authority) was the fast-track bill that gave up Congresss right to amend or filibuster TPP and which reduced the number of votes required to pass TPP from two thirds of the Senate to a simple majority in each chamber.
Yep, our thinking is pretty much the same. All I’m saying is that if Trump wins and they don’t honor it, they risk losing big time in the REAL race. Trump voters going to support the GOP candidate that the party weaseled in at the last minute? NO, and this kind of crap (in-fighting) put Obozo in the White Hut twice, IMO. People out there “I’m not voting for Romney” - gave us Obama.
