So how long is it until the UN selects the next SG?
That is how long POTUS has to get that POS behind bars.
He can become the SG. The requirements for one of the permanent members citizens is for that individual to obtain permission from the other 4 members. Once that is done he can go for it.
This was the purpose of his globe trotting while POTUS was doing his Asian tour.
He has spoken to the other 4 and apparently they said yes, or he wouldn't be throwing his hat in for the position.
Even though the US will veto his nomination, I don't believe that will be enough to stop him from getting the position.
