Parent's point was the TPP was explicitly designed to economically isolate China from its neighbors.

Trade deals are ugly.

But if your geopolitical goal is to prevent Asia from moving closer to China, you can, and we have, done worse than the TPP.

Yeah, and then Trump pulled out of TPP, and last year everyone signed this deal, including China: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regional_Comprehensive_Economi...

And people still celebrate Trump for being tough on China...

I personally oppose the TPP on the intellectual property grounds et al brought up here - but its purpose to contain china is what I was highlighting.

Whoop de do. Yeah the copyright stuff sucks but a hot war sucks worse. Don't lose the forest for the trees here.
