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.

Congress has the votes to override the veto, but at least it’ll be good politics.

Well that’s the thing that will diminish dems.

It’s shaping up to be the gov shut down will be in part b/c the dems did nothing about DACA.

lol

This Trump fella is good

Perish the thought, but are there enough votes to OVERRIDE a veto???

Let 'em override it. Let the cowards in Congress finally be held responsible for something.

Veto this horrible bill and become one of the greatest Presidents in American history, Mr. Trump. Do it.

I don’t believe he will sign it in it’s present form. The DACA kids aren’t happy with Democrats if you remember.

And also sign up for twitter - if only to support the President and show him his base will have his back all the way if he sticks to his stance here.

+1

Twitter is the 8th most popular website in the United States. That's where MAGA voices need to be.

Amen. This bill is as UNREAD as Obamacare....never vote for that which you know has flaws, or has not been fully read and discussed!

"How is it the Dems are always getting their way?"

And not just in Congress.

The courts, media, pop culture, education, organized religion, and now even big business imposing liberal doctrine on its customers. It never seems to end.

It's as if conservative thought in this country is facing extinction.

The original vote was 256 to 167 with 12 not voting. That means just shy of 59% of the House of Reprehensibles voted for it.

If everyone who voted stuck to their original vote there would not be enough to over-ride a veto, even if the 12 non-votes joined in.

And are the “Veto Override” numbers there? If they are, a veto would be largely symbolic. I say VETO Mr. President!

Veto it whY....You really want to shut down the government?

He's only pointing out that the Dems don't want to take care of DACA and the wall.

He'll sign it.

I agree - and it’s even worse up here in Canada.

After the public school system, media, Hollywood, the music industry and the political systems are through with us, I am actually amazed there are any conservatives at all.

Mr President...

* A Snickers bar these days at a convience store; $1.49
* 1/2 Gallon of low fat Chocolate Milk on sale; $2.49

* Watching Mitch the slow boat to China guy, RINO Ryan, Botox Nan and Smuckey Chumer Bhit a Srick? Priceless...

Correct. If the President vetoes it, and they try for an override then it forces the GOPe to admit that they have stabbed us in the back.

They were all brave, big talking show voters when homobama was there to veto their every show vote, and they would abandon attempts at a 60% redo, but now that President Trump is demanding The Wall, they are suddenly all about overriding the Chief Executive of their own supposed party.
