Actually the only baffling is yourself. TTP was bad in many ways I agree, but it was totally in Americas favour and as for the food.. I think you have been reading to many Russian propaganda sites.
The major goal of TTP was to slow the movement of China into the pacific. Lets say China decided to kick the USA out of the south China Sea, which is a HIGHLY likely scenario, for the USA to take a stand and say no, they need to support of regional countries to do that and under TTP, that wouldn't of been so hard.
Without it well Australia is trading 80% with China, NZ has a free trade deal and basically every other pacific country is following. Highly unlikely we will shoot ourselves in the hand that feeds us.
Also the beloved sanctions on Russia, without TTP many countries will still trade with Russia, TTP was going to snip that in the arse... hence why the Russian propaganda machine went into over drive.
I'm glad TTP was dropped! But I'm a Kiwi Australian, if I was American, I'd be Sad because surly America is the biggest losers.
