Bernie Sanders: Closed door NAFTA renegotiations w/ 500 corporate lobbyists is unacceptable

Nov 13th '17: When Donald Trump campaigned for president, he promised that he was going to stop corporations from shipping American jobs to Mexico and other low-wage countries; that he would re-negotiate NAFTA and other trade deals to make them “much better for American workers.” But as we speak, the re-negotiation of NAFTA is being done behind closed doors with 500 corporate lobbyists and executives who are working overtime to protect their interests at the expense of the working people of this country. Unacceptable.

1. NAFTA was/is a good agreement. Maybe if Trump-- and Sanders --hadn't opened door to renegotiation

and spread untruths about the agreement and pushed the America first agenda, we wouldn't be going through this again. Maybe we wouldn't have lost out in the TPP too.

2. Sanders is pushing "America First" ?

And spreading untruths about the agreement?

I never knew that.

5. Nope - paid close attention to the primaries

It always amuses me how other folks think they know
what I did or did not do.

6. Sanders was against NAFTA, TPP, and any trade comments by Obama, etc. You can't deny that.

4. This is always how it is done

We'll get to see it once its been renegotiated and before it is voted on. Of course, it will have fast track status if they can get it done in time.
