That’s because the Constitution says that it takes 2/3 of those PRESENT in the Senate to ratify a treaty.

and of course the Congress is in recess in August.

If he does this stunt, it is time to rise up and toss them all out by force if necessary. I am beyond tired of this clown and his party abusing the constitution and procedure. Sorry, this is not a kingdom yet. Recess appointments are one thing but trying to get through something akin to a constitutional amendment must not be allowed to stand.

"That’s because the Constitution says that it takes 2/3 of those PRESENT in the Senate to ratify a treaty."

If a communist bear takes a dump in the woods and no one hears him, does it really make a sound?

With Dirty Harry, I'm sure they will consider it "deemed passed" - just like ObamaCare took over 1/6 of our economy, but more importantly, life and death of EVERY citizen.

After passing this next usurpation, we'll read and weep!
