It requires 2/3 and and that means roughly 67 senators have to vote for it and that is highly unlikely.

Better not take anything for granted in this day & age of up is down, down is up, right is wrong & wrong is right. Start calling, emailing, visiting Senators NOW. A vote for this is a vote to go home. Period.

Primarily I picked your post to respond to in order to compliment your choice of tagline: (Being powerful is like being a lady. If you have to tell people you are, you aren’t. (M.Thatcher))

Nice - very, very nice. :o)

...but also to remind posters that treaty passage requires only a 2/3s majority AMONG THOSE PRESENT.

Considering the Constitutional and legal transgressions accumulating to the current Administration, I don’t put it past them to employ the most outrageous of shenanigans to enact this into law and then thumb their noses at the hapless GOP and citizens alike.

The real question is "would that include a pine overcoat as travel attire?" (i.e. Are we really serious?)
