TPA should be unconstitutional....the constitution clearly describes how agreements with other nations must be conducted.
But, to appease the corporatists, Congress decided to redefine trade deals with other nations as different from treaties with other nations.
The SCOTUS said that was fine and that Congress could give away it’s constitutional power.
Why is this happening?
Because treaties are difficult to get approved. You need 2/3 of the Senate. Well, that is just inconvenient to our purchased Congressmen....so, they usurp the.Constitution to appease their corporate masters.
If Ted Cruz really believed in the Constitution, he would oppose this with every fiber of his being.
The Founders intended such things to be difficult.
The TPA is to treaties what the nuclear option is to executive appointments.....the easy, lazy way out.
Amen.
