what's the reasoning aside from being obstructionists?
Policy is racist.
No further discussion is aloud once this claim is made.

Who was the guy that said if Congress obstructed his agenda, he had a pen and a phone?
It works both ways.

So Cartwright must have missed high school on the days that his government teacher talked about the president negotiating treaties and the SENATE confirming them! The House is just a spectator.
There’s that nasty Constitution getting in the way of the goals of the Democratic Party again!

it seems quite unlikely that the courts would rule that congress keeping us in a decades-old trade structure doesn't fall under their constitutional authority to regulate commerce with foreign nations

Can they not pass this in the lame duck session?

Make them vote against an agreement that is good for America. Make them deliberately harm the US economy for political gain. Make it public, for all to see.

If it were only that easy, the Dim Media will make sure to twist the truth and put the blame on the POTUS.

It might go to the court, but the constitution is pretty clear. In section one it is specific in referencing the house for specific powers, and then lists general powers for congress.
In article 2, it is specific that the senate is the approving authority for treaties.
There isn’t a legal case to stand on, and in any case, going with the interpretation that the house can block treaties would upend 250 years of precedent.
It’s unlikely, to say the least.

Not sure how he could think this is a smart play. I also think enough House Dems would cross over that it would probably pass the House regardless.
