wasn't New Balance against it only after they didn't get the contract to supply the military with footwear?
This per NB VP public affairs. New Balance has publicly opposed TPP.https://twitter.com/germanotes/status/796479327911247876 …

this is true. They were totally out for self. But why would the admin snub the only sneaker that makes US shoes.
-
idk, but It's actually a bit of a misconception that the entire shoe is made in the US.http://www.wsj.com/articles/new-balance-shoe-materials-arent-all-u-s-made-1412109111 …

but they are the only sneaker that actually has factories here with real workers!!!
-
Under Armour is also developing a factory in Maryland, but I get your point.
-
which is awesome. Shinola and others are kinda trying. But we are not helping them.

You can only do your part which you are by being knowledgeable and sharing info.

yeah I'm not pro New Balance but I think people need to know that TPP didn't help small or US biz

let's also not forget that
#NewBalances support for#Trump MUST include support of his opinion that#MinimumWage is ALRDY 2 high -
you are seriously clueless. They don't want
#TPP cuz it will destroy jobs/demand for labor lowering wages.@germanotes -
I'm clueless? Did you NOT hear Trump SAY minimum wage already too high???
-
Minimum wage is just a price floor & will create unemployment for high schoolers & such.

Either you or NB created an unnecessary firestorm. Couldve stated they opp TPP w/o mentioning names. Both Trump & Clinton opp it

Would you mind adding color? Was NB asked for comment on the election? Or specifically re: TPP? Or was this a press release? etc

c'mon now. NB has always been an advocate for manufacturing footwear in the US. Don't taint them for a couple RTs.

as an avid runner you can count on a complete and total boycott.

Her tweet was to get attention - NB was referring to its hopes that Trump would change TPP. They weren't endorsing him.
