President Barack Obama and German Chancellor Angela Merkel held a joint press conference and penned an article Thursday, and both stressed that globalization is here to stay.
“Today we find ourselves at a crossroads — the future is upon us, and we will never return to a pre-globalization economy. As Germans and Americans we must seize the opportunity to shape globalization based on our values and our ideas,” Obama and Merkel wrote in the article published in the German newspaper Handelsblatt.
Merkel during her remarks at the press conference said something similar when speaking about “progress” with trade between the United States and Germany. “I think we share this conviction is that globalization needs to be shaped politically. It needs to be given a human face, but we cannot fall back into pre-globalization times.”

I'll make this as clear as I can. Both Merkel and Obama see their OWN futures benefiting from Globalization. Just how stupid did they think the ordinary citizen would accept a "secret" global trade agreement that all of us would be bound by?
Sorry, the globalists LOST and the people WON. Get over it!
2 loosers 1 agenda
Neither one worth a damn.
