Doesn’t it still need Trump’s signature to become law?

Only 17 more needed to override his veto. Good luck with that.

I hope they are the first to go when the Globalist jihad reaches our shores. (They are already here but probably need to gain more people before they can act) Can Trump veto this? And why did it start in the Senate?

So who were the traitors, the usual suspects?
To: OrangeHoof
further down in the story:
“The resolution could be vetoed by Trump, as he vetoed a War Powers resolution in 2019.”
Dems and their media are grasping for anything positive for their side. My question is, which Democrats did not vote for this?

The usual:
The vote was bipartisan, 51-45, with eight Republicans voting with Democrats. The eight Republicans included Utah Sen. Mike Lee, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, Maine Sen. Susan Collins, Tennessee Sen. Lamar Alexander, Louisiana Sen. Bill Cassidy, Kansas Sen. Jerry Moran, Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski, and Indiana Sen. Todd Young.

I imagine that the 4 missing votes are those of the Dem candidates for Pres.

Probably the ones off running for president. They don’t seem to think they need to show up for work anymore.
To: BradtotheBone
And it will be vetoed just like it was last year

The congress main power in defense or war arena is Its power of the purse. Such resolutions do not limit constitutional presidential powers.

Wait 51/45..... If 8 RINO’s voted for it that would mean some Democrats voted against it right?
