Said it removes tariffs for China. Japan wanted India to join but they wouldn't. And something about Japan and scallops, beef and sake. Okay. China wins.

I want to slap everybody who spread misinformation about the TPP, as if President Obama would screw American workers. Everybody who says all trade deals are bad. ONLY BAD TRADE DEALS ARE BAD YOU IDIOTS.

manufacturing from countries like Japan who have full access to our markets but deny us access as imn autos. We need to protect our fledgling green industry from outsourcing and dumping.

Nobody's going to buy them. American auto companies won't adapt to foreign markets.
