Will you stop it with conflating a vote for the TPA as having voted for the TPP?

Problem is, that if TPA passes, then the top-secret TPP sails through too...

Only 51 Senators voting “No” stops it from sailing through. The same occurs in the House if they don't get their majority. We can stop a fast-tracked agreement at either place, and we know that happens because the House stopped the very bill allowing this, this week.

No it doesn't. However, the TPA does exclude Congressional amendments and filibusters - not good. Still, it requires an up-down vote with 60 days of public scrutiny. And by the looks of things, with the Dims protecting their unions, it's not a done deal.
