[[Can I ask a stupid question?

Is this Iran “deal” legally binding, since they have gone around the constitutional requirement that a “treaty” be approved by 2/3 of the Senate??]]

Not a stupid question but rather one EVERY American should be asking, and one that every American should be asking our senators

[[In this case, we have a “deal”, not a “treaty”, and in this “deal”, they engineering things so that 1/3 plus 1 vote in Congress will sustain a presidential veto of Congressional disapproval, rather than following the Constitution, which would require a 2/3 affirmative vote of the Senate.]]

And the GOP sit there with their thumbs up their butts doing NOTHING about this VIOLATION of the law

[[My stupid question is whether this “deal” is really legally binding as a “treaty” would be, since they have chosen to go outside the legal framework of a treaty???]]

EVERY GOP candidate SHOULD put Iran on notice right NOW stating that this idiotic agreement entered into by an inept incompetent president who feels he is above the law, is a NON binding act and that as soon as a republican becomes president, the deal is off and sanctions WILL return

The question is, would they care given that Russia, Europe and probably China won’t impose sanctions again?
