Mo Brooks: If Trump Is Interested in ‘Protecting Americans’ He Will Veto GOP/Dem Spending Bill
Breitbart ^ | 2-15-2019 | John Binder

Posted on 02/15/2019 4:18:16 AM PST by SanchoP

“If the president were to veto it, we would sustain his veto,” Brooks said. “I would certainly hope that the president will veto because it’s really bad for America. Whether he will or not, I can’t say.”

“I applaud President Trump when he does those things that helps secure our border, that helps protect the Rule of Law. This legislation does not help secure our border, it makes things worse, in my judgement.”

Make the GOPee over-ride.

Exactly. This is the end of the dance, one way or another.

Then make them.

In my opinion, Mr. Trump shouldn’t associate himself with either of these two parities, and neither should America, or anyone in it.

There is no point in passing laws that destroy us, and there’s no point in having political parties whose aim is to destroy us.

Enough of these treacherous bastards.

I've been cyber-screaming since President Trump first threatened to do the EO for the border wall instead of doing it. Now his opponents have had plenty of time to stop that strategy. The only way he wins is if he comes up with something new and unexpected today, catching them off guard and prepared to argue against the wrong thing.

But President Trump doesn't listen to us little folk.

Because he didn’t bring in genuine MAGA people with sufficient government experience. He’s been relying on traitors and the inept for dealing with Mitch and Congress.

He also didn’t sufficiently secure the 2018 election (with Kelly’s undermining replacement/protege at DHS making sure that it wasn’t secured.

He needs to do more of what Reagan did in terms of going over the heads of the media and Congress and taking his issues to the American people directly. That’s the best of what will keep enough RINOs in line until he has a chance, we can hope, to start restoring the rule of law, including with the corruption in Congress.

More likely they’ll have our grandkids subverted enough that they’ll never know what they missed. It’s not just immigration that’s killing the country the schools are helping.

One day our grandkids are going to look us all in the eye and ask why the F did you do this to us. Interest on the debt is killing us, you ruined the culture through rampant immigrant demographics, we can’t afford good healthcare, housing, education or energy, and the Constitution was abandoned.

Why?

Cannot be stated enough. Any compromise with evil is still evil. In one generation we have destroyed our grandchildren's future.

If Mo and company did there job, they would have not passed it.

But just another example of the lazy right, doing what they do best.

America voted to end the nightmare,
but the GOP backstabbers, and the seditious
in DC will have no part of the end;
... only more for them.

The President should veto.

Why is the bill even needed if Trump is going around Congress for $10 billion anyway? Just force them to stay in town and pass a CR for another month or two.

A majority of House Reps did vote NO .

The Kevin McCarthy open borders wing gave enough votes to the Dems who all voted YES.

This is how awful the invasion bill is .

Brooks is absolutely right that if the President were to veto the bill there aren’t enough votes to override it. But Trump doesn’t want to take responsibility for shutting down the government again.

“...One day our grandkids...”

Sadly our grandkids are being propagandized in the state run schools. They are being told that climate change is caused by evil capitalism and that socialism and globalism will eradicate the former power of the malicious white man.

They are right now being taught that the vestiges remaining of western civilization (i.e., Christianity and Judaism) are evil and capitalism must be replaced with communism and wealth redistribution. This mantra is taught in all public schools everywhere, K - college.

They are not shown how think critically and most will roll over and not ask any questions.

I am sorry to be pessimistic but if we don’t change the state run school curricula, the generations coming after us will not even know enough to ask the questions.

I pray he does, and while he’s at it hold up the bill and in plain and simple English point out some of the garbage in it directly to the American people.

What can’t Trump just tell congress that he will only sign a continuing resolution to keep government open, take the 8 billion to build the wall and tell the Democrats to go pound sand?

Trump set up this mess after he wanted a wall after he lost the House .
Why did he ignore it for two years
?

He better veto or not plan to run in 2020.

This is a Dem bill and is that bad .

A Dem invasion bill .

This is his ‘ Read My Lips ‘ moment .

He will have made the invasion way worse by signing this disaster .

Name a national emergency that is greater than 15,000 dead Americans a year … We went to war in Iraq and Afghanistan on just 3,000 dead Americans on 9/11.”

He stole my line. I’ve said for years that illegals kill more Americans per year than 9/11 did.
