TPP: It Could Be Worse, And It Is

American voters got it right last week.  And one of the biggest bones of contention they have with the Kenyan's current style of governance is the dictatorial way he enacts laws.  I didn't say "passed" laws, because the president doesn't pass laws; he signs bills passed by congress, which then become law.  The Kenyan, of course, knows better than congress and the people it represents, so he's entitled to "fast track" legislation that bypasses congressional review and essentially becomes law.  That's how we got stuck with Obamacare.  He snookered congress into passing a bill they hadn't even read.  We all remember Nancy Pelosi's famous utterance, "we have to pass the bill to see what's in it."  Brilliant.  But none would question the motives of this president because, well, he's black and we don't want to be accused of being racist.  No matter what harm may befall the country and society, we just can't be called racists.  So we'll just sign off on whatever Marxist destruction he deems fit to impose upon us.

TPP Nations

Now we're presented with the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) agreement.  Like the Obamacare scam, TPP, which is not simply a “trade deal” but the creation of a new global governing structure, which weighs in at 5,554 pages and can only be reviewed in a secret, secured room in Washington, D.C. by congressmen and aides with certain security clearances. Under current fast-track rules, it cannot by amended or filibustered by Congress, according to Breitbart news.  Well, isn't that just swell.  I've heard of the notion of one man, one vote, but I'm not sure this is what was intended.

That said, the realities of political governance require a delicate touch.  Trump is brilliant in his selection of personnel for his team; he needs some outsiders to counter the status quo as promised in the campaign, but he also needs some guys in the inside as well. General Patton saw the need to leave mid level Nazis in place in Berlin in 1945, just to ensure the trains ran on time, after all.  Don't throw out the baby with the bath water, and all that.   Personally I don't trust Paul Ryan as far as I could throw him, but I'll wait and see if he's on board, or if he continues to act behind the scenes to sabotage the Trump agenda.  My last post warns against trusting the hidden hand, and I hope president-elect Trump will not let the globalists dissuade him from ending the ill advised erosion of national sovereignty.

Once bit, twice shy.  Obamacare is a destructive disaster.  It turns out to be even worse than we thought. So will be the TPP.  Voters know that what they don't know may rise up and bite them yet again.  And they are wary.  Very much so. So anytime a massive bill of any kind is brokered in back rooms and in secret red flags should go up.  If the people's business can't be conducted in the harsh light of day, it has no business being considered.  TPP should be rejected on its face, for just that reason.  Yet in the personage of House Ways and Means committee chair Kevin Brady another hidden hand reveals itself inside the GOP, as he urges the renegotiation of the TPP, rather than it's withdrawal.  Even the Kenyan's administration has admitted there is no way forward for this ludicrous surrender of sovereignty.  But big money donors to both parties are evidently still burning up the phone lines.

Again I say, trust no one, Mr. Trump.  And kill everything the Kenyan has done in the last eight years.  The voters are with you.
