Tpp had major problems, IMHO.

It was roundly criticized, but as you can see, CATO, etc., liked it. The remaining participants got together and revamped it, which was what WE SHOULD HAVE HAD LED. My emphasis for our righties. Trump left like a whimpy little wet rag. We had it in our hand and threw it away - for pettiness - because it was an Obama accomplishment. Nevermind the fact it wasn't Obama's -

<snip>The impetus for what became the TPP was a 2005 trade agreement between a small group of Pacific Rim countries comprising Brunei, Chile, New Zealand, and Singapore. In 2008, President George W. Bush announced that the United States would begin trade talks with this group, leading Australia, Vietnam, and Peru to join.<snip>

Oh, you could say Trump didn't have good advisors, but Trump himself doesn't understand the advantage of alliances and trade deals - so he's not open to listening. He'll just cast about till he finds someone who agrees with his stupid approach.
