@scottlincicome Surely. Not sure campaign rhetoric is the "it" tho. Also, rhetoric was much more vehement than action. No NAFTA renog, eg1 réponse 0 Retweet 0 j'aime -

@whinecough yep. Think that's aligned w my theory: rhetoric stymies support for liberalization, but doesn't lead to outright protectionism1 réponse 0 Retweet 0 j'aime -

@scottlincicome Yah, but not much support for further liberalization in the first place. Doha dead, FTAs unpopular/inconsequential, etc.2 réponses 0 Retweet 0 j'aime -

@whinecough also, Doha wasn't (officially) dead in 2007-08 (still lots of biz cheering) and US was doing FTAs (incl big KORUS)1 réponse 0 Retweet 0 j'aime -

@scottlincicome FTAs in the works had been for some time. Bush wasn't initiating any new ones. And Doha was def dead in 2008.1 réponse 0 Retweet 0 j'aime -

@scottlincicome True on TPP, but srsly: Doha was already dead. Fast track ended in 2007. The last Ministerial was in 2005.1 réponse 0 Retweet 0 j'aime -

@scottlincicome If anybody was gonna get Doha done (in the 2000s at least) it was those two.1 réponse 0 Retweet 0 j'aime
@whinecough yep, but remember: we were talking abt US political support for liberalization, not reality.....
