She said so after she said she supported it. It will be a matter of time until she "evolves" on that matter again. Mark my words, if she's elected.

- dragonwriter 10y ago> She said so after she said she supported it. She said she supported it while it was being negotiated, and later (as a candidate, when the final text was available) said she opposed the final form, and that it no longer had the specific features she expected the final form would have when she supported it.
- superobserver 10y agoWe can debate the "he said she said" until the cows come home. It is no mystery that HRC supports and champions oligarchic policies. The TPP is being pushed by the Obama administration who have added their support to her presumptive nomination. There's no fooling anyone here about what may very well happen. The timing of this is peculiar, but if it has nothing to do with HRC, we'll simply have to wait and see if that is the case.
