“”I don’t understand... what is there to veto?
If this is simply a resolution that doesn’t pass any legislation, then what purpose does a veto serve?””
Sure glad you asked the question. I read through the posts to see if there was anything explaining what there would be to veto and I sure didn’t see anything so I don’t know what they’re talking about.
Congress can't pass a law removing the specific authority that President Trump used in order to stop him, because that would be an ex post facto law. They can only remove the authority from future use. That can be vetoed, and that veto can be overridden.

The original time frame is important as this was post Vietnam and Watergate so the law was passed by the treasonous (modern day copperhead) Democrats and signed by Carter. Yes the same ones the deserted the battlefield in Vietnam.
If I understand it correctly:
When (not “if) the Democrat-controlled House votes to decertify the President’s Emergency Declaration, the Senate will be asked to pass a similar bill.
If (not when) the Senate does not vote to decertify the President’s Emergency Declaration, then the President’s Declaration stands.
If the Senate DOES vote to decertify the President’s Emergency Declaration (Fat Chance), then the President can VETO that bill.
THEN, the Congress can attempt to “override” the President’s veto. (No Chance)
THEN, having failed with the “override”, the Dems can try “impeachment”. IOW, a Dem “suicide”?
