Nothing like recognizing that President Obama was correct all along

"Trump to explore entering Pacific trade pact he once called 'a disaster"

"Speaking after a trade meeting with Trump, Republican senators said the president told White House National Economic Council Director Larry Kudlow and U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer to look into joining the deal, which 11 other Pacific Rim nations signed in March."

"Trump flirting with massive TPP trade pact"

"Trump directed economic adviser Larry Kudlow and U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer to scope out whether re-entering TPP talks makes sense, Sasse said. The trade deal, negotiated by President Barack Obama, would aid the United States in isolating China by crafting agreements with many of its neighbors"

Looks like photo op Executive Order number four is about to be reversed, perhaps someday he'll realize his other blunders and rejoin the Paris Climate Accord plus recognize the Iranian nuclear deal

The not to miss part now will be watching how Fox and the right wing demogogues will suddenly reverse their positions on TPP, how long before you'll start seeing conservatives referring to it as "Trump's TPP," the TTPP?

Complain if he doesn't, complain when he does.

Voted for, yeah, supported pulling out of TPP, no, one of the reasons I voted for Obama, it always made the best sense, unfortunately, the current President let his ego get in the way of what made sense, fortunately he has come to realize the realities

Complain if he’s wishy-washy.

Last I knew, words mattered, and it was the fourth Executive Order he employed with the full photo op opportunities to celebrate the departure

Not complaining, just pointing out the hypocrisy, last year it was the "worst deal ever, a disaster," and now he is pursuing it, how else can you characterize the reversal?

He really just says stuff.

Hypocrisy? But "evolving" on an issue is ok?

Gary Johnson is the only candidate who supported TPP. Neither Hillary nor Bernie did. Nor did a lot of democratic congressmen.

Trump ran on it calling it a disaster that would hurt America. At one point Hillary called it The Gold Standard. It became toxic during the campaign due to Bernie and Daffy selling it to the people as evil. But Hillary was right. Trump as usual, is dead wrong.

So Presidents should never change their their stance and when they do they are wishy washy?

Well when you boast about being smart and making the best decisions, it's just funny.

Doesn't say a whole lot for her if she wasn't willing to stand up for what was right.

Ummm, no. You voted for Obama because you are a leftist loon.

She was trying to win an election, and people like you who can be easily fooled by a carnival barker made her weasel back. She would have not killed it. Politics is not about absolutes. It is some give and take.

LOL. Dumbass I voted for Gary Johnson who supported TPP. So she was trying to win an election by pandering/lying about her real position. Shocking she didn't win and so many people questioned her honesty.

Edit: And please don't tell me you supported the socialist in the primary. It would explain your complete lack of financial and economic acumen and not understanding how economic growth occurs

You didn't have that problem with Obama.
