Bernie Betrayal: Hillary Clinton Campaign Says TPP Will Become Law

According to U.S. Senator Jeff Sessions, a top Hillary Clinton advisor is saying the TPP trade deal will in fact pass and become reality.

This is another example of how Hillary is flopping and flipping on most issues in attempts to secure Bernie Sanders votes.

Hillary has been claiming to be against the TPP.

Sanders was always against the TPP from day 1.

It's all a campaign trick to get votes.

She is 100% in favor of any global pact.

Bernie Betrayal: Hillary Clinton Campaign Says TPP Will Become Law

Jeff Sessions: “Today the top advisor to Hillary Clinton on Asia Policy told an Australian news outlet that Clinton’s opposition to the TPP is not real, declaring “every trade agreement goes through the deepest, darkest tunnel before it is ultimately passed.”

The worst kept secret in Washington is that if Hillary Clinton is elected President, the Trans-Pacific Partnership will become law. This statement by her senior advisor only confirms these fears. After voicing her support for the 5,554-page agreement 45 times before she began running for President, and refusing to take a position for the first months of her campaign, Mrs. Clinton’s senior advisor is now overseas touting the benefits of the TPP. Just as her email scandal proves, Mrs. Clinton says one thing to the American people, but another to her globalist friends. The TPP creates an all country Pacific union whereby each country gets a single vote. This will allow the union to legislate against the will of the American people. Such a global commission will be very difficult to contain.

I said this the other day when Bernie endorsed Hillary. She says anything to get the Bernie voters support, then will do a 180 after November 8.

She is 100% in favor of any dirty deeds as long as she can plead ignorance and continue to stuff her pockets. If that woman had any soul she probably sold it long, long ago and this is why she is so capable of ruining people/companies/countries without feeling bad about it (at all, whatsoever)

"I've got hot sauce in my purse... "

What a joke.

You've either got to be completely brain dead or completely complicit to ride this train.

Man those Bernie bros have got to be feeling to Bern now. Betrayed by their boy and then not even a day later he's effectively told "No, I won't be implementing any of your policies Sanders, you are no longer of any use to me, now go sit in the Senate until your term is up and then disappear into history."

"Bernie bros", "Betrayed by their boy"? You are generalizing the opinion of a vast group of people and what they think of the endorsement and the reasons for it.

Bernie HAD to endorse Hillary in order to stay in for the Convention. DNC rules. Simple as that. I'd still expect him to fight on the Convention floor (but it will be like David fighting 3 Goliaths without a slingshot...)

Not sure why (or even if) he's actually going to go through with it....

As for TPP, not sure how ANYONE can believe Clinton wasn't anything but 100% for it. After all, she's been paid to put it through.

I love how the "Bern outs" are in full on recovery mode now.
Just listen to the desperation from the Bernie clan over at TYT.

I would almost feel sorry for them if they weren't such a bunch of snarky ignorant twits. One look at the comments will show that this so called news group is falling along with their socialist poster boy and I say good riddance. Then people can listen to real liberals for a change like the Rubin report. You know somewhere that actually reports news rather than just commentary and opinion pieces.

I agree, and since Bernie is not as much of a concern for her she is no longer parroting him but just saying things that will sway Trump supporters and such.

a reply to: xuenchen

This is a lie. First she has always been against the terms as they are now. Her hopes in the beginning were that it would be the gold standard but upon inspection it didn't even come up to her standards. She's said this often. (But if you never listen to what she says you won't know that)
Remember this is up for vote in between the election and inauguration and neither candidate contributes to its contents.
It's unlikely congress will vote it in at this time anyway. They don't want to give Obama a legacy that includes a major trade agreement.
All we can do is wait to see what she thinks should be changed to secure jobs here. If it gets approved it won't matter what she thinks.
Trump will have an answer at the end of the day. Just as soon as he's had a chance to Google it.

Right now she has no say on whether it becomes law. Come on guys faux rage again. If it gets voted in or out its contents at this moment has nothing at all to do with Hillary.
Whether it's in or out has nothing to do with her or Bernie or trump for that matter.
This is Barack Obama's last stand and battle.

People need to read this ....

Hillary Clinton says she didn't endorse the TPP trade deal until it was actually negotiated

Flop Flip Flop to who ever will listen.

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's position on the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal became an issue during her Feb. 4 debate with Sen. Bernie Sanders at the University of New Hampshire. She says she now opposes it.

MSNBC debate moderator Chuck Todd pointed out that Clinton supported the deal while secretary of state, then asked her whether she might support such agreements again if she were elected.

PolitiFact has looked at the issue before. We found Clinton made plenty of strongly supportive comments about the deal while negotiations were still ongoing.

Speaking in Australia in 2012, Clinton hailed the deal as "setting the gold standard."

"This TPP sets the gold standard in trade agreements to open free, transparent, fair trade, the kind of environment that has the rule of law and a level playing field," Clinton said. "And when negotiated, this agreement will cover 40 percent of the world's total trade and build in strong protections for workers and the environment."

Strong words for a deal that hadn't been completed yet. But it wasn’t just on that one occasion that Clinton was more than just hopeful about the deal’s impact.

Col. Sanders showed he was always a career politician since day one, idealist my a**!

It certainly will become law.

Former United States Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Economic Policy under President Reagan Paul Craig Roberts said in a video I watched that every member of the US congress who voted for the legislation had a $136 million donation paid into their re-election campaign fund.

When someone pays you, you can be very certain they will want something in return.

More monopolisation for the corporate power brokers.

Real "socialist" that Bernie
