Assume that President Trump develops an executive agreement with Russia this month, which will reduce taxes on imports from the country as way to promote cordial international business interests. This executive agreement is directly in conflict with a foreign tax treaty issued by Congress in May of last year. Assuming the president has the power to develop this agreement what is the likely outcome? A. The congressional treaty is discriminatory on its face and will be deemed unconstitutional B. The President's order will supercede the congressional treaty C. The President's order is in direct conflict with Congress' enumerated powers to tax and therefore will be struck down D. The congressional treaty will be upheld

Respuesta :

Answer:

C. The President's order is in direct conflict with Congress' enumerated powers to tax and therefore will be struck down

Explanation:

An executive agreement supersedes state's law, but it cannot supersede federal laws or treaties enacted by congress. The president does not need the senate's approval for an executive agreement, but it cannot go against a treaty that was established by congress. The foreign tax treaty that was approved by congress is legally binding.
