Which the current GOP passed fast tracking authority for. When the GOP wants to play games they like to blame the Pres.

They have also passed in their budget the reason why oil is going back up.

GOP= for their big donors only.

Nope the GOP gave away cheap oil and our remaining factory jobs all for their big donors. They run both the House and Senate. They had to want to do these things against us and for their big donors Same thing they did with Pres. Clinton both Nafta and the removal of Glass-Stegal.

You put the GOP in control of the House and Senate and only bad things come out. You give them the House, Senate, Pres. and SCOTUS and we will lose all our rights.

Who voted for the TPA to go to the floor of both houses. The Pres. is using the GOP, he says he likes it and they have no idea , to put it on the floor again or to wait out. If they put it on the floor and pass it he could veto it. If they don't pass it their donors get pissed off.

The Pres. is miles ahead of those GOP clowns.

It doesn't help, but then you knew that right? This has been in the makings for several years now; no one seems to be interested.
