President Obama is prepared to enter into the Paris climate accord as early as this week even though Republicans have insisted that the pact must be ratified by the Senate, according to a report out of China.

The South China Morning Post reported that Mr. Obama and Chinese President Xi Jinping are “set to jointly announce their ratification” of the ambitious international climate-change pact on Friday, two days before the start of the 11th G-20 Summit in Hangzhou, Zhejiang.

Agree.

His signature on a treaty without senate approval is just a meaningless gesture.

If the President decides that a treaty is in the nation's best interests (and does not violate the US Constitution!), the President (or designated representative) will sign the treaty. Signing a treaty does not make it become law! It means that the US Government believes the treaty is a good idea, and commits the President to seeking ratification.

That's shitty. I think he should stake his life on the US fulfilling a treaty he has put a signature on "ratifying"

The power of the Treaty in international law has been supplanted by the "deal".

The executive office has been redefined as "dealer in charge".
