(WASHINGTON) — An effort by House Democrats to override President Donald Trump’s first veto has failed. That hands him a victory because his declaration of a national emergency at the Southwest border will remain in effect.
The Democratic-controlled chamber has voted 248-181 in favor of overriding Trump’s veto. That fell 38 votes short of the 286 needed

Anything is possible but when Congress doesn’t block it, what grounds exist for a federal judge to enjoin it?
They can bring it up again for another vote in six months. Same result.
“can they try and vote again?”
There is no Constitutional restriction on them trying to vote again - it is determined by the House’s internal rules. The hard legal stop is when the next Congress is seated.
It is very unlikely to ever succeed, no matter how many times they try, and they know that.
Unless it passes the House, the Senate should never vote on it. It dies, if it dies in the House.
Only a dozen? There shouldn't have been even one.
Hopefully someone will name and shame them.
Thanks for the post.
Thanks thought I read that somewhere
They’re Never Trumper RINOs. Last election wiped most of them out.
that’s still over 200 votes trying to prevent our president/commander in chief from defending our borders....
TREASONOUS VOTES!
TREASON!
there are already millions of illegals including IslamoNazi terrorists/enablers/supporters AND Mexican drug gangsters...in our country....
which all have to be exported, deported, repatriated, imprisoned, or simply executed.
The wall will at least keep more from getting in...
votes against this are votes to further endanger our families “from sea to shining sea”.. and destroy our country.
regardless of any of their political viewpoints on any other matter...right, center, or leftist, these congress=critters are enemies of us all (and our country) and must hopefully please please Heaven be removed from office ASAP!
Most of the House GOP is solid. There are very few liberal Republicans left.
The trap is set.
Assuming Trump is going to run on Border Security. :-)
Democrats lose again. So much winning!

All Never Trumper RINOs. Not surprised they sided with the Democrats.
Winning/Whining.
Yesterday, Trump said “treason”
By July 2020 there will be only a ghost of the Democrat party still in existence
Upton. The light bulb commissar.
No surprise there.
Amash is a scumbag who would vote for it daily if given the chance.
I don't see how. But...I can't see Russia from my house, so...there's that.
