because "it did not meet her high standards".

Does anyone know what those standards are? How would she change it to make it acceptable? Which of its corporate empowerments would she accept ... and which would she reject? What are her criteria for an acceptable trade agreement? Is the TPP an actual trade agreement to begin with (because most of it seems to be about empowering large corporations over governments)? And if it was unacceptable, why did she support it so vigorously? She can't blame Obama for her participation in this anymore ... after all, she is now slamming anyone who objects to anything the man did. (I think it more likely the she convinced Obama about this thing than he convinced her ...)

Think of all the Congress folk who have endorsed her ... has she called any of them up and begged them not to saddle her administration with this turkey? Has she publicly called on them to reject it? If not, then in what sense does she oppose it?

I can't support this thing. I can't support anyone who does not oppose it.
