The constitution only requires 2/3 of the members PRESENT to ratify a treaty. Don’t need 67 senators...

As long as your talking constitution, don't forget to mention that the Supreme Law, (Article VI, para 2) requires that any laws passed must pass constitutional muster. Must first be in be in Pursuance to the constitution. And of course, the Second Amendment, being a part of the Constition, is part of the Supreme Law and CANNOT BE DISMANTLED by subsequent treaty law.

Senators and Representatives, Members of the several state Legislators, and ALL executive and judicial officers (AND THAT INCLUDES THE PRESIDENT) are bound by OATH OR Affirmation to suppost this Constition . . . .

And this Oath clause is included in the Second Amendment and is part of the Supreme Law.

Of course if the prez choses to disregard the Supreme Law and attempt to dismantle the Second Amendment in spite of his oath, this land will be as though there is no more laws to be followed and everyone can choose to follow the example of our dear leader.

Could it be the prez understands what is going to happen and has ordered all that ammo to arm all federal officers and offices to serve as his private army?

Don’t even start that scare talk up again. It will take 67 votes to pass this POS and it won’t happen. Everybody will show up for a vote like that.
