"The day she gets in, which hopefully will never happen, she will approve TPP and that will be another disaster."

Trump repeated his argument that Clinton, who had supported the trade deal as secretary of State, only switched her stance on the issue because of his opposition.

Clinton had faced significant pressure from the Democratic grassroots to come out against the TPP, and the issue has become a pivotal one for Sanders supporters who are still holding out their support.

Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe (D) stirred the pot when he told Politico Tuesday that Clinton would change her mind and support the trade deal once in office. He later backtracked, saying he only hoped she would support it.

Sanders supporters protesting Clinton's nomination came to the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia this week armed with anti-TPP signs, underscoring their concern about the issue.
