1. Yay, NAFTA!

TPP will be a legacy of shame, if it goes through.

2. Mike Pence will blame it on Obama Care.

3. Way to go Bill Clinton!

Another notch in your belt for good old NAFTA. Remember telling us how many jobs will come to the USA because of it? Remember Alan Greenspan pitching it with you?

Another 1400 families without jobs!

What is your wife's solution? She says she knows what to do!

Please let her tell us. Please?

Hillary?

Hillary supporters? Anyone?

Crickets.....

6. Why do you think that?

Managing trade would put a stop to this behavior very quickly.

5. Thanks Clinton. Thanks NAFTA.

7. And they have the nerve to glibly promote more of this type of "free trade"

So much for the vaunted "exports" free trade shills use to push more FTAs.

Assholes.

8. Carrier's parent, United Techologies had a $5.5 billion profit in 2015

So you see, those jobs had to go to Mexico, right?

And oh yeah, each shareholder gets a $.64 per share cash money dividend back this quarter.

So you see, those jobs had to go to Mexico, right?
