      Also Mexico and- you know what, why not just make it a blanket resolution for everywhere, given he’s not supposed to be doing it anyway?

    Great, that will show him not to do that again to Venuzuela… They need to vote to preemptively stop him from doing it elsewhere too. Buuuuut the president also has to sign the order if it even passes for it to take effect which is probably a realistic scenario.

      Per the system we have, impeachment and removal from office for breaking the law. 16 additional senators (than what passed the resolution) would need to flip for it to matter.

    No one is stopping him if he does it anyway.

    So far people have tried to say “Hey you can’t do that”, even wrote ‘strong letters’, but he clearly doesn’t give a fuck. And people are like: “ah well, I tried 🤷, maybe he’ll listen the next time he commits a crime and I ask him to stop”.

    Why just Venezuela? Make it a catch all, not useless after the fact shit. He’s already threatening two other countries.
