"Hillary Clinton supporters rejected an effort by Bernie Sanders' allies Saturday to add explicit opposition to the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal to the Democratic Party's 2016 platform.
Sanders supporters shouted "shame!" and "fake progressive!" at Clinton backers on the Democratic National Committee's platform panel here as the party met to finalize its official positions on issues ahead of its convention later this month in Philadelphia."
So should the trade deal be opposed or not? Personally, I think myself too ignorant to judge. I listened to an interview with William Kristol speaking at the Commonwealth Club and he seemed alarmed at the thought that a Socialist and Trump had such high voter support. His point seemed to be that on the trade issue things are complex, that the world in general has improved with open trade and that it would be silly to open up a tariff trade war.
Anyway, I take it the answer isn't simple. What do you think?
