Paul Ryan is trying to outdo Boehner as Obama's best ally.

"Instead, he's allied with the President he tried to defeat. As chairman of the powerful House Ways and Means Committee, he's muscling a controversial trade bill through the House that could shape President Barack Obama's legacy -- and his own.

"Yeah, the irony's not necessarily lost on me. Look, I think the President on this particular issue is right and therefore I think this is good for our country, good for the people I represent. Trade is very important for America -- it's how we get more jobs," Ryan told us during an interview in his Capitol office this week."

But only a small portion of Obama's TPP is about trade, and it's not free trade.

Republican Senator calls TPP a new global governance, and Obama is still keeping the text secret.
