(CNN)President Donald Trump on Monday will unravel the behemoth trade deal he inherited from his predecessor, as two sources familiar with the matter told CNN he plans to sign an executive order to withdraw from the negotiating process of the Trans-Pacific Partnership.

YES! YES! YES! This was a mega assault on this country. We would have to do things that we did not want too, bound by this piece of paper. However, if I as president did not want to do it, we wouldn’t do it. Who the heck keeps their word in world politics any more?

Let's see what the press says because Hillary was against TPP ll during her campaign.

But years earlier, she said TPP was the gold standard.

[Buckeye McFrog]

She would have said TPP was a wonder drug that cures cancer if she thought it would have gotten her elected.

Candidate Hillary kept her emails on TPP hidden from the public. But then-Pres Obama considered TPP central to his presidential legacy and to his foreign policy and economic (gag) legacies. TPP is best understood against the backdrop of Obama's post-presidential get-rich-quick foundation plans.

NOW ISN'T THIS INTERESTING? few, if any, of the RCEP
and TPP countries contributed to the buck-raking Clinton Foundation.

Looks like the Clintons and Obama divvied up the globe so that each have their own countries in order to collect big buck get-rich-quick foundation donations, honorarium, cosultancies, and int'l insider business deals.

======================================

THE FACTS ARE THESE Obama's trade deal giveaway is a huge scam...best examined against the backdrop of Obama's two tax-exempt foundations (two-that we know of).

Obama's priming the pump for donations to his two Foundations.

All of Obama's thinly-veiled actions....

(1) promoting fast-track TPA and TPP,

(2) his refugee/immigration suck-ups

(3) his non-action WRT ISIS, IRAN....

.....are best understood against the backdrop of Obama's future get-rich-quick plans as an ex-president----more specifically, his two get-rich-quick Foundations (two foundations that we know of).

All the Muslim entities control billions of dollars---and Obama is lying-in-wait for his share: foreign donations, lucrative insider trade deals from untapped resources, energy deals, telecom deals, arms sales, consultancies, million dollar honorarium...and so on and so forth.

===================================================

WIKI REFERENCE: Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) is a proposed free trade agreement (FTA) between the ten member states of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) (Brunei, Burma (Myanmar), Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam) and the six states with which ASEAN has existing FTAs (Australia, China, India, Japan, South Korea and New Zealand). RCEP negotiations were formally launched in November 2012.

I’ll wait for confirmation from Trump or someone in his staff. CNN is likely to say this just so they can say he didn’t actually do it and discuss that for 3 days. Pass. Trump should tell everyone in his staff something different and see who CNN talks to. Don’t trust them!

CNN? Fake news until it is reported elsewhere.

[Ann Archy]

BINGO!!! That;s the ONLY way to find out who’s leaking to CNN!!

Trump admin pretty much announced it on the website a few days ago:

This strategy starts by withdrawing from the Trans-Pacific Partnership and making certain that any new trade deals are in the interests of American workers.

But Abe is trying to keep it:

Japan will “take every opportunity” to appeal to U.S. President Donald Trump about the merits of remaining a party to the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal he has promised to dump, the government’s top spokesman said Monday.

Ah, the old canary trap ploy!

We want drilling in Anwar, Alaska and the Keystone pipeline. We want it now.

Learn something new every day. I’ve never heard of a canary trap or a barium meal test. So of course I looked it up, thanks!
