Cruz never supported TPP. He supported TPA, which is separate and distinct from TPP.

In a June 2015 post on his campaign website, Cruz’s staff said that he was taking a wait-and-see approach to the TPP.

"Sen. Cruz has not taken a position either in favor or against TPP," the statement said. "He will wait until the agreement is finalized and he has a chance to study it carefully to ensure that the agreement will open more markets to American-made products, create jobs, and grow our economy."

From the article I posted:

""When the treaty language was released in early November 2015, Cruz's stance hardened.

At an event in Iowa on Nov. 20, 2015, Cruz said he would not support it.

"There are a number of Republicans on that (debate) stage who support TPP, who support (the Trade Promotion Authority)," Cruz said. "I voted against TPA, and I intend to vote against TPP.""

He is a flip-flopper. He did support it.

Clearly, as noted by the article, he did not. Good grief, even your last post stated he hadn't taken a position on it. A few months later, when parts of the bill was leaked, he came out against it.

You're being dishonest.
