Defeated by AOC, Crowley Now Pushes Trump’s Trade Deal for K Street

Crowley lends insider knowledge to his former-donors-turned-current-employers’ efforts to get Trump’s package of pro-corporate “trade” provisions passed.

(Who better than Crowley to advise corporate stakeholders on how to manipulate the levers of power to achieve their desired outcome? That this advantage typically goes to the highest bidder means that those working in the public interest face a stacked deck.)

Joe didn't lose, he got a promotion and a very large raise. The establishment doesn't just lay down and let their own go off without reason. Remember and take my words to mind as I say occasionally. The establishment and intelligence agencies have us player checkers while they're playing 3D chess. While the media keeps us on the checker board the establishment is moving several moves ahead of us. An equivalence in years.

And I might add. As you read the commonality of these bills, it shows another betrayal of Trump to his supporters. Of course they will again overlook this fact.

While the writer of this article covers effectiveness as a lobbyist may degrade in time, lets look at the other guy in the photo with Joe, Dan Johnson. Here's a guy that was a congressman for only 2 years, 93-95. That was quite a long time ago, yet here he is in DC of this year still making an impact at a trade conference.

(Johnson was tied to Bill Clinton largely because of his support for President Clinton's 1993 budget. In 1998, President Bill Clinton appointed Johnson to the rank of ambassador at the Office of the United States Trade Representative and he served for two and a half years as chief textile negotiator and principal adviser to both the President of the United States and the United States Trade Representative on all textile and apparel trade matters.)

He might not be a lobbyist, but now working with one? And at the age now of 71 it must be of benefit of some sort, from someone, all these years later. For christ sakes, retire already! But here he is dealing with trade again, that some of us might feel trade agreements during his congressional years wasn't beneficial to our country. I would be one of the some.
