** TPP is Dead
------------------------------------------------------------
Sen. Charles Schumer (D-NY), soon to be the Democratic Leader in the Senate told labor leaders today that the Trans-Pacific Partnership will not be ratified by Congress, as the
Washington Post’s Mike DeBonis, Ed O'Keefe, and Ana Swanson report (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/powerpost/wp/2016/11/10/the-trans-pacific-partnership-is-dead-schumer-tells-labor-leaders/?utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=227f0c762e-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2016_11_10&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-227f0c762e-145367789) .

Dive Deeper: CSIS’s Kevin Nealer today published a new commentary “Is This the End of Free Trade? (https://www.csis.org/analysis/end-free-trade/?utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=227f0c762e-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2016_11_10&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-227f0c762e-145367789) ”

And, see a new Peterson Institute “Peterson Perspectives (https://piie.com/experts/peterson-perspectives/dont-underestimate-what-trump-could-do?utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=227f0c762e-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2016_11_10&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-227f0c762e-145367789) ” with Gary Clyde Hufbauer on how Donald Trump could implement his trade agenda unilaterally.

** Obama’s Final Foreign Trip
------------------------------------------------------------
President Obama’s final foreign trip Greece, Germany, and the APEC Summit in Peru next week was planned as a reassurance tour in the wake of a contentious presidential campaign. But with the surprise election of Donald Trump, the agenda of the trip has been significantly muddled, as ABC News’s Jordyn Phelps reports (http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/president-obamas-final-foreign-trip-sobering-tone-election/story?id=43446097&utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=227f0c762e-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2016_11_10&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-227f0c762e-145367789) .

** What Will Trump Mean for China?
------------------------------------------------------------
NPR’s Rob Schmitz attempted to address what a Trump presidency will mean for China (http://www.npr.org/sections/parallels/2016/11/10/501537328/what-will-a-trump-presidency-mean-for-china?utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=227f0c762e-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2016_11_10&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-227f0c762e-145367789) .

The New York Times’ Keith Bradsher writes (http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/11/business/international/trump-china-us-trade-war.html?_r=0&utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=227f0c762e-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2016_11_10&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-227f0c762e-145367789) that in a China-US trade war, Trump would have weapons.

And, the Wall Street Journal’s Ian Talley reports (http://www.wsj.com/articles/donald-trumps-pledge-to-get-tough-on-china-raises-threat-of-trade-war-1478804077?utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=227f0c762e-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2016_11_10&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-227f0c762e-145367789) that Donald Trump’s commitment to sanctioning Beijing for its currency policy has been one of his most explicit campaign promises.

Dive Deeper: CSIS’s Scott Kennedy today authored a new commentary: "How the United States and China Can Avoid Greater Tensions (https://www.csis.org/analysis/how-united-states-and-china-can-avoid-greater-tensions?utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=227f0c762e-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2016_11_10&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-227f0c762e-145367789) ."

** Critical Quote
------------------------------------------------------------

** “The real economic policy debate—over income stagnation, wage inequality, and the uneven recovery—never happened. Why? In part because neither the Republican nor Democratic parties had convincing answers to the difficult structural problems that face the U.S. economy and give voters such anxiety.”

** Smiles
------------------------------------------------------------
I love Bob Dylan. And I really love it when I come across something having to do with him that I haven’t previously seen. This clip (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYnnPEwjLSs&utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=227f0c762e-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2016_11_10&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-227f0c762e-145367789) from 1966 shows Dylan having just gone electric and performing with some very young members of The Band minus Levon Helm. It’s such a smile.
