We can debate the "he said she said" until the cows come home. It is no mystery that HRC supports and champions oligarchic policies. The TPP is being pushed by the Obama administration who have added their support to her presumptive nomination. There's no fooling anyone here about what may very well happen.

The timing of this is peculiar, but if it has nothing to do with HRC, we'll simply have to wait and see if that is the case.

If it had to do with HRC, they could wait; if anything connected to the election, it has to do with their actual support for TPP and concern that no successor to Obama will approve it, so their best chance is for it to get passed and signed this year (given the statements already made by Republican leaders that that isn't going to happen before the general election, probably in the lame duck session after the election.)

But they won't, because they're doubling down.
