Hillary Offers Wait and See Statement on TPP [View all] bigtree Apr 2015 OP

Is it just me or did she not say if she supports the TPP or not? The other two kelly1mm Apr 2015 #1

you're reading that right bigtree Apr 2015 #3

I think we should first learn what is in the TPP before giving opinions. Thinkingabout Apr 2015 #2

Due to the bad history the default should be opposition until we know what's in it. HereSince1628 Apr 2015 #4

Have your opinion, i choose to wait until the official release happens. Thinkingabout Apr 2015 #10

Hint : The rich people who know what's in it like it. They are keeping it secret from GoneFishin Apr 2015 #33

There was a link here on DU to comments by some hifiguy Apr 2015 #40

Yep. I agree. And also, anything the Republicans want bad enough to cooperate GoneFishin Apr 2015 #46

Oh yeah, probably getting paid to keep the information from you. Thinkingabout Apr 2015 #45

Obama is keeping the information from us. He's had secret meetings. Go watch the Sherrod Brown cui bono Apr 2015 #87

if you don't know what's being proposed, you're really not paying attention bigtree Apr 2015 #5

I am paying attention, some say there are leaks, I take this to mean exactly it is a leak. Thinkingabout Apr 2015 #15

Yeah, when it's too late. That's a tired and lazy excuse you've got there. Go do the research. cui bono Apr 2015 #88

sorry, the leaks have been verified by multiple sources cali Apr 2015 #90

When negotiating there are proposals and counter proposals, ergo a leak today may not Thinkingabout Apr 2015 #98

Some "champion" Hillary is, always hedging her bets, afraid to take a principled stand like Elizabeth, Bernie, or Martin... InAbLuEsTaTe Apr 2015 #60

Which is why she and every democrat should be voting AGAINST FAST TRACKING IT. How the hell can we sabrina 1 Apr 2015 #68

I wonder what stockholders felt about trusting heads of Enron and Arthur Anderson in their day... cascadiance Apr 2015 #93

Fucking exactly right. When do you think we should start learning what's in it? cherokeeprogressive Apr 2015 #70

Tell me, thinkingabout Scootaloo Apr 2015 #80

Do you believe that Hillary Clinton doesn't know what's in the TPP? delrem Apr 2015 #81

Exactly! If she was selling this treaty as SOS to other countries and doesn't NOW know what's in it? cascadiance Apr 2015 #92

Seems reasonable to me. What's the problem here? DanTex Apr 2015 #9

The question is why can't Hillary say whether se supports it or not? morningfog Apr 2015 #14

Probably because she's more pro-free-trade than either of those two. DanTex Apr 2015 #18

Hillary Clinton knows what's in the TPP. delrem Apr 2015 #86

There is nothing in the final draft that might be presented to Congress that you won't know about. Hoyt Apr 2015 #79

Obama holds most of the cards. If the agreement is not good, he doesn't submit it to Congress. Hoyt Apr 2015 #99

Did you support Bush when he wanted to fast track his Trade Agreement in 2007? sabrina 1 Apr 2015 #71
