43. Hillary called TPP the GOLD STANDARD not so long ago
Most unions balked at that. So she flip flopped and said after she saw it it wasn't the gold standard. The POTUS Obama corrected her and said she hasn't seen it yet. Foot in mouth. ![]() Hillary Clinton flip-flops on Trans-Pacific Partnership: http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2015/oct/08/hillary-clinton/hillary-clinton-now-opposes-trans-pacific-partners/ Snip: "As of today, I am not in favor of what I have learned about it," she said in an Oct. 8 interview with PBS Newshour’s Judy Woodruff, adding, "I don’t believe it’s going to meet the high bar I have set." This stance has some people scratching their heads, because she praised the negotiations while serving as secretary of state. We thought we should take a look back and see how Clinton’s position on the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) has evolved. She has addressed the trade deal on a number of occasions since official negotiations started in 2010 (CNN counted at least 45 comments), so we’ll note her most representative remarks in chronological order. Snip:It’s up to voters to decide how they feel about her changed stance on the Trans-Pacific Partnership, but we rate Clinton’s reversal as a Full Flop. ![]() The for other four points have nothing to do with Bill. Please comment on those too. And last what a nice opinion you have of young progressives in the USA. ![]() OS |
