How can they stop the Iran deal ? all the Senators voted for the Corker bill that reduced the Senate’s approval threshold from 2/3 rds of the Senate to Obama needing to get only 1/3 of the Senators to agree with Obama and Iran. Well Senator Cotton was the only one that voted against the Corker bill.
They can’t stop it now. it’s all theater
It’s either:
1. A setup so that there never really is a vote on whether it’s a treaty or executive agreement. Since treaties require super majority and since Congress cannot assign its enumerated responsibilities nor encumber another Congress or Administration.
2. It’s all theater. The GOPe wanted it passed and rigged it so they couldn’t stop it.
3. Obama challenged them to take him on with both hands tied behind their backs — then he realized hey, both hands are already tied behind their backs.
