Y'all don't get it
Today wasn't about TPP. Today was about making the first black President a lame duck. The Republicans don't care about TPP, and I guarantee they didn't care about NAFTA. Rather, they know trade and globalization is a wedge issue in the Democratic Party.
I support the President and I trust the Administration's judgment in negotiating a trade deal with any country; the same way I trust the President to negotiate with Iran. If you don't, you're a bit schizophrenic!
Today, the Senate Democrats gave full control of the federal government to the Republicans.
