McAuliffe say Clinton is willing to walk back on TPP. Then reverses his comments

I believe she will do the right thing.  Preferably though, the lame duck congress will push it through after the election and we won't have to worry about it.

Congress would need balls of steel to do that when something like 95-98% of the country will be voting for a candidate who opposes it. I'm skeptical that it would work even in a lame duck.

Trumps anti-free trade message will be discredited once he loses.  Most of the Republican congressmen who would vote against it due to fear of Trump reprisal won't have to worry anymore.

Are you sure about that

Yes.  The Republican delegation overwhelmingly supports it.  If there were a Republican POTUS instead of Obama, it'd likely be even more unanimous.

The Hillary campaign threw McAuliffe under the bus on this one. Hillary has assumed the mantle of the "protectionist lite" candidate in this election, and given her opponent, is not going to be walking that back, at least prior to election day.

I know it's semi-important for you to now believe that the Democrats can morph into a fiscally moderate party where you can feel politically at home (especially after defecting from the GOP), but keep dreamin'.  There's nothing "lite" about her protectionism, and any Democrat who wants to get the nomination in the near future is going to have to hold similar views, IMO.  This primary season made that obvious.  I'd argue there's a much higher chance of the next Republican nominee being for free trade than the next Democratic one.

Another reason to make sure that Hillary Clinton is elected.

There can be no good Republican who does not vote Clinton this time.

What about Clinton's anti-free trade message, buddy?
