171. So, why should she and we by agreeing with her LOVE taking away the Democrats' ability to filibuster

... the TPP if when it was voted on they felt that it was exposed more as being against Americans' interests in general. Which is highly likely to happen when it was still very much a secret bill at that point when the TPA was passed.

Do you LOVE not being able to filibuster the TPP now yallerdawg? Please explain if you don't WHY you would support passing that TPA SHIT that just about all Republicans joined with CORPORATE Democrats passed along with our CORPORATE president against our interests?
