Lawmakers look to bypass Trump on North Korea sanctions

Trump, might become irrelevant. Finally, they seem to be getting fed up with him and his whining bellicose shouts.

Senators from both parties increasingly worried about North Korea's nuclear weapons program are talking about bypassing President Trump and hitting the country with sanctions on their own.

That talk is setting up a potential clash between Congress and President Trump, whose administration insists they are already hitting the regime of Kim Jong Un hard.

But as North Korea presses ahead with its nuclear program and gets closer to a weapon that could hit the U.S., senators are growing impatient.

Lawmakers admit it is a difficult decision between sitting on the sidelines or bucking the president and taking matters into their own hands.
