Breaking on twitter: Trump threatens VETO of Omnibus Spending Bill
Teitter ^

Donald J. Trump‏Verified account @realDonaldTrump · 3m3 minutes ago  More

am considering a VETO of the Omnibus Spending Bill based on the fact that the 800,000 plus DACA recipients have been totally abandoned by the Democrats (not even mentioned in Bill) and the BORDER WALL, which is desperately needed for our National Defense, is not fully funded.

Fox News channel just reported that MATTIS will be calling Trump about Trump’s threat to veto. Mattis is once again carrying the Swamp’s water for them!

I suspect Mattis' days at the White House are numbered.

POTUS does want to solve the issue because he wants to clean up immigration, end chain migration & the lottery, change to a merit based system with quotas in America’s interest.

And he already has the support of Americans who support those goals. And those comprehensive goals to secure the border and reduce overall immigration is precisely what the Dims and their core supporters oppose so strongly.

In essence by making it a package POTUS is welding together a new constituency and robbing the DEMS of support in 2018 & 2020.

Not sure what your overall point is. The president might bring some new people into his constituency if he succeeds in implementing those immigration reforms, but he won't win over recent Third World immigrants or any of the hard core Dims.

It is a fantasy for some Republicans that recent poor and poorly educated Third World legal and illegal immigrants are going to become Republicans, not for any reason will it happen.

The bill is temporary so lets get a lot in exchange.

Firing Mueller is one, and a new FICA abuse special prosecutor is another.

Lets get some of what we want in exchange for this temporary bill.

NO AMNESTY, Build the wall; NO Planned Parenthood funding; and so many things. Congress is trying to simply kick the can down the road, giving the Dems everything to run over the few conservatives. We need to primary every so-called Republican that voted for this bill; replace them with Trump Republicans.

I think they need 67 votes to override, not 66, but I could be mistaken.

Absolutely Trumpie...veto this monster bill and, then promptly fire Mitch McConnell & Paul Ryan!!! Do it, the American people are behind you, 100%. Let the government shutdown and the watch both, the “scum & vermin” Republican and Democrat Establishments twist in the wind. All the good and winning cards are in your hands, POTUS, Trump!!!

Veto it and let the uniparty override the veto if they want. It’s a win win. You get military spending but blame all the rest of the turd bill on squishy, defeatiest leftist Republicans who voted for it.

If he approve he shall sign it, but if not he shall return it, with his Objections to that House in which it shall have originated, who shall enter the Objections at large on their Journal, and proceed to reconsider it. If after such Reconsideration two thirds of that House shall agree to pass the Bill, it shall be sent, together with the Objections, to the other House, by which it shall likewise be reconsidered, and if approved by two thirds of that House, it shall become a Law. But in all such Cases the Votes of both Houses shall be determined by Yeas and Nays, and the Names of the Persons voting for and against the Bill shall be entered on the Journal of each House respectively.

66 is just short of two thirds of 100.

If Trump doesn't sign this, he'll not only elevate this story to the top, the antiRKBA children's march and naming of Bolton will be forgotten news!
