Any deal that's not approved by Congress won't be accepted by Congress. Not now and certainly not in the future.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
We're simply trying to say that Congress has a constitutional role to approve any deal, to make sure that Iran never gets a nuclear weapon. Not today, not tomorrow, not ten years from now.
For any trade deal to move forward, there has to be agreement.
Congress is not an ATM.
It's the job of the president to negotiate, but it's the job of Congress to approve.
It's been years, decades, since a president has lost a major trade initiative. That would be bad headlines.
There's going to be no compromise on repealing Obamacare lock, stock and barrel.
I want trade deals, but they have to be great for the United States and our workers. We don't make great deals anymore, but we will once I become president.
Congress has the responsibility to ensure that any international trade agreement entered into by the United States must serve the national interest, not merely the interests of those crafting the proposal in secret.
The attack on ObamaCare was that Congress does not have the power under the Commerce Clause to force a private citizen into a private contractual relationship. If such a thing is permitted to stand, the anti-ObamaCare forces argue, there will be no limit to Congress's power in the future.
Given a fair wind, we will negotiate our way into the Common Market, head held high, not crawling in. Negotiations? Yes. Unconditional acceptance of whatever terms are offered us? No.
