Do you think that any deal that President Trump strikes should in fact be voted on and ratified by Congress? Yeah, it is best if it is ratified by Congress as a more lasting effect on it.

He had four years that he looks at it and said, no, we're not going to try to do the same deal that Barack Obama did on it. (03:43–03:50)
