The House doesn’t pass treaties, the Senate does and he has all the Senators that he needs for it.

It would take repeal of the 2nd Amendment, for the UN Treaty to have any effect in the United States, even if the Senate irresponsibly ratified the treaty.

In any case, enabling legislation would fail in the House.

The People know you can't amend the Constitution by treaty.

Who says the treaty would repeal the 2nd? The People know that they could easily regulate guns out of existence. We already have thousands of gun laws on the books. You obviously have not been paying attention all these years to the various schemes that have withstood court challenge,
