"China's new world order"

Largely cause they were afraid of losing the Union endorsement in the primaries, Clinton actually worked to secure it when she was serving as Secretary of State

And look, your USC is 2-0, both late minute wins, but wins, and with no Oregon on the schedule looks good to move on, now what is the rumor Franklin is being recruited to move from Penn State to USC? That's going to take a lot of alumni going to the bank to buy out Clay

Now that Biden has been elected and doesn’t need union approval will he bring TPP back?

Helton sucks and we’ll lose a couple of games. Franklin is better than Helton, almost anyone is, but I don’t want him.

Why were Hillary, Bernie and so many progressives against the TPP?

They did that to get elected, There were millions of Americans who were convinced it was bad. I argued for it and got creamed by the right and a chunk of leftys.

The TPP was negotiated by the Obama administration but never approved by Congress. The pact was signed in February 2016 by 12 countries that included the U.S., Japan, Canada, Australia and Vietnam.

But President Donald Trump pulled the U.S. out of the TPP in 2017, leaving the remaining 11 countries to renegotiate and sign the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership or CPTPP in March 2018.

In its original form, the TPP would have put around 40% of the world economy on the side of the U.S. — compared with China’s share of 18% or 20% of global GDP, said Graham Allison, Harvard University’s Douglas Dillon professor of government.

“If it’s simply a matter of geopolitics, the U.S. would do it in a heartbeat,” he told CNBC’s “Squawk Box Asia” on Wednesday.

President-elect Biden, who backed the TPP as Obama’s vice president, has reportedly said he would renegotiate the trade deal if he’s elected.

"The largest free trade area in the world came into existence over the weekend — and the U.S. was not even invited. For the first time in living memory, the hegemon at the center of a major global free trade agreement is not the U.S. China has stepped into Uncle Sam's shoes, and now anchors the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership, or RCEP, an area covering 2.2 billion people and 1/3 of all the economic activity on the planet."

"The Obama administration was explicit that the U.S. should be the anchor of a Pacific Rim trade agreement, the TPP, that pointedly excluded China."

"China is negotiating a trade deal that would carve up some of the fastest-growing markets in the world at our expense," wrote then-President Obama in 2016."

"Big new trade pacts are extremely difficult to negotiate. China showed real determination in getting this one done, even as the U.S. demonstrated almost no interest in improving or even maintaining economic relations with the region."

And while China was progressing, Trump has had the US locked in trade wars which has cost the US 300,000 jobs and .3% of the GDP (https://www.moodysanalytics.com/-/media/article/2019/trade-war-chicken.pdf) while producing next to nothing

Seems the "big deal maker" got played again

China just restricted the sale of materials the US needs to make missiles citing it as national security. The irony of a new world order.

This is exactly what we knew was going to happen. We have lost so much ground with Trump.
