POTUS! What Have Democrats Done To Push Rebublicans Into Creating An Alien?!

Democratics have taken the completely immoral ( or maybe just amoral) position that we don't need to compete with Vietnamese workers. We do have to compete with Vietnamese workers. We are competing with Vietnamese workers. We will continue to compete with the Vietnamese, in spite of the fact that our unions all want to return to a 1950s status quo.
So then will the French go back to Vietnam to use the worker force their better than the way they did
to cement the Vietnam war?
No. The French won't go to Vietnam again.
Should we try to encourage organizing among Vietnamese workers, or go into the country and force
a brand of our democratization on those citizens the way we wanted to do in the sixties when North
Vietnam balked?
No We should not attempt to do that.
We have to compete with countries in the Pacific Rim whether our President gets TPP or not.
Somehow, Congressional Democrats have turned so virulently against their leader's initiative, that the
Republicans have figuratively taken the President's side so completely they have dared to twist the language in the original requesting documents he presented, by adding so many
non-POTUS caveats to it that if the bill goes to the President's desk the way they've altered it, even POTUS, its originator, would want to hold his nose in order to sign it.
Even so, having trade agreements with Asia-Pacific work forces will be better that having none, even
if the agreements aren't perfect. No agreement can be perfect. And no agreement will give American
unions the power to control hiring or wages in other countries without a decades-long commitment.
American unions are having a difficult time holding the line on illegal hiring, firing, and wage-thefts,
even in their own country.
