There is really a simple solution for this that fits well within the rules of the senate. One senator can raise a point of order stating that the treaty is, in fact, a “treaty”. Have whomever is in charge of the “rules” (can’t remember who that is right now), rule in favor of this motion. Then proceed with the bill as a treaty, which requires 2/3rd approval. Of course, none of this will happen because the GOPe has no spine or testicles. It’s a wonder they can dress themselves in the morning without consulting with Obama first.
