Hillary wasn't against it. She said she would change a few things. Probably the font it was printed with.

It's already happening. California has trade relationships with several Chinese provinces so...

Either California is on board with the Constitution, or they're not. You would be wise to decide which side of the fence you're going to stand on.
Good question.

I think we as a nation need to ask ourselves why states need to remain attached to each other under oppressive federal rule.

Bernie Sanders agrees with Trump on the TPP :

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...=.3f74e4fb147f

How do the lefties explain this since he was their hero. You would have voted for Sanders over Trump, yet he would have done the same thing.

lol, it's all too easy.

Theyre both wrong.

TPP nations like Japan and Australia are rich and could have been huge opportunities for US companies.

We will continue is to trade with both. TPP was never enacted. We have been trading with both for decades.

haahaha the truth hurts lib tards. If Sanders would have won you would be saying he was right on the TPP. You're hypocrites plain and simple.

Lots of people in California voted for Sanders so apparently the TPP is not that big of an issue for you and they most certainly would have voted for Sanders over Trump in the main election.

Bite me. What have I been saying this entire thread? Sanders was right on TPP. He was against it. I've said all along that Trump was right to let it remain dead.

Why were the details of this so secretive ? Why was there a security clearance needed to read the document of the treaty ? If it was so great for everyone, wouldn't sharing it help sell it ?
