Technically true but misleading statment by WaPo reporter. He doesn’t mention that Senate has to approve by 2/3 vote.

Ping to Today show list.

Why do we need a senate when we have an EMPEROR!

Technically, the Constitution says something on the order of “....the President has the power to make...., with 2/3 of the advise and consent (required)....”

This ‘ratification’ business is superfluous add-on diversion.

President can sign a treaty, but it does not take effect until ratified by the Senate.
