These “conservatives” are grasping at straws when they are forced to ignore the plain language of the Constitution and the writings of those who were there to sign it and then resort to pointing to late 19th Century and 20th Century rulings by the a very progressive Supreme Court to justify their inconsistent arguments.
As I said, the Supreme Court has ruled several times that unborn babies are not human beings.
Are these “conservatives” ready to cede that argument to the 9 robed Oligarchs who determine what is or is not in our constitution?
Or are they willing to take a principled stand in favor of strict construction and original intent?
Again, trade agreements involve revenues and tariffs. That is in the Constitution and requires passage by both the House and the Senate, unlike treaties that require only Senate passage.
The Constitution states that the House must be involved when revenues and tariffs are concerned. That is not a difficult concept to grasp.
That is why trade agreements do not fall into the treaty category and those agreements require the approval of both the House and Senate.
