The Dems are whistling past the graveyard if they think there's enough votes to override a Trump veto.

There’s a LOT of leftwing RINOs in both the Senate & House...so it could happen.

Well, lets have the vote and see who they are.
My guess is my sorry a$$ Senator, Lamar Alexander will be one of them.
Foam Boy Rubio could be another.

The Senate can “disapprove”, but when there was opportunity to come up with a good workable program, they fumbled around unable to find their own butts with both hands.
When there is a disagreeable task to be done, hesitation is not a virtue.

Does “disapprove” have any legal or enforcement effect?

Yeah the democrats care so much about the military.
Seems to me Trump supporters should stay home on any republican who votes against the president.
And don’t they need 60 votes just to get to a vote?

That is some picture.
But it makes me wonder whose butts are they finding, and what are they then doing with them?
It feels like they are finding mine, EEK!

Now, whether we have enough for an override and veto, thats a different story.
I worry more about one of our AZ senators than the other. Neither is predictable however.

If it’s a Joint Resolution, it has the same effect as a bill and requires the approval of the President.
To: jazusamo
McTurtle said he would back the Emergency Declaration.
So Why would he even allow this resolution to come to the floor for a vote?? He has the power to keep it from coming to the floor.
If he allows a vote he is once again backstabbing the President.

Exactly right. It is always amusing to hear a Dem concerned about the military.

Ducklady get a brain! you are wrong to think he is robbing from the military, if the military is aware and said ok for him taking it.

Is there a site, similar to heyjackass.com, that tracks major crimes committed by illegal aliens?
