    Even Bernie Sanders was against TPP. Do you also think he's in bed with the Chinese government? Chinese economy is definitely struggling. I don't buy the argument that the trade wa…

    Pretty disingenuous don't you think? We all know trump says a lot of bullshit and contradictory things. He isn't Obama who was really good with his words. But if all you have is tr…
