President Donald Trump is ready to sign a punishing Russia sanctions bill that GOP hawks have pushed for months. But only if it changes to give him more control. A senior administration official granted anonymity to discuss the president’s view said that “conceptually there’s an openness” to the bill from Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), but the person suggested that the legislation needs to preserve what the White House sees as the president’s sole authority to oversee U.S. foreign policy. The current draft of the bill allows the president to waive a 500 percent tariff on countries that buy Russian oil…

It remains one of the most impactful and revolutionary documents ever written.

Now, of course, since probably half of present day Americans at least doubt the…
