So what you are saying is that an international body forcing the United States Congress to change

Forcing? Huh? The WTO makes rulings. The US Congress and President can abide by them or not. The WTO cannot force either of them to do a single thing. If they choose to go along with the WTO it is simply because they CHOSE to. Sometimes they do, sometimes they do not. The mere fact that sometimes they do not shows the WTO cannot force the US to do anything. It has not one bit of influence over US decision that countries independently levying tariffs against us would have (as they have done throughout our history), and it has not one bit of authority over the US Congress, President, or Constitution in any way whatsoever.

that countries independently levying tariffs against us would not already have...

It's known as extortion. Since we have had no President or Congress since Reagan with a backbone, we will surrender and abide to the rulings of the WTO and GATT. There are better ways. When you grow up junior, you'll realize that.
