TPP won't pass Congress. It is dead and likely was a long time ago. Maybe Clinton would have 'renegotiated' it but she was opposed to it too and it had become politically poisonous. The US will not be part of the TPP, period.

He has to. A betrayal on this issue is one of the few things that will turn his base against him.

Republicans control Congress. Several of them want to pass TPP and might want to see if Trump signs or vetoes it.

I think he's a complete idiot who will sign TPP.

He'll tweak some provisions, give it a new name and say it's better, when it'll just be the same monster the TPP was (if not worse)

That's what John Key (perhaps optimistically) proposed at APEC.

He doesn't care about viability.

Unfortunately he is likely to.
Which is a shame. I was a huge backer of the TPP.

I now support TPP. He could possibly sign it.

That would be one of the only good things to come out of his Administration. Hopefully he does.

I don't know so I didn't vote.  I think he probably will--he has called it a "disaster" that "must be stopped" or it will "rape our economy" during one of his emotional diatribes--but I hope he doesn't.  I don't think he thinks about things much, but I do think he is willing to listen to smart people.  If someone takes the time to explain to him that it is primarily a national security measure then I think he might be willing to reconsider.  It's just a matter of getting people close to him that understand how important it is that we don't back out of the partnership.

I could see this.  Trump's actions over the years are not those of a man with a strong, heart-felt opposition to free trade.  It just got him votes and separated him from, well, nearly every other Republican officeholder.

I can't wait until he works with Democrats in Congress literally more than he works with Republicans in Congress, LOL.  At least it will Make Politics More Interesting Again.

He needs to end these one sided trade deals like NAFTA that bleed America dry.
