No, They are trying to sell us a bridge again. Unfortunately there are far too many dumb enough to buy it.

I actually think it’s BS that Congress can pass a measure overriding an Executive action or regulation and it still needs POTUS to sign it to be valid. I think if the topic is blocking an Executive action, if that action is restrictive on individual rights and freedoms, a simple majority of both houses or a small supermajority like 55% or something should be adequate to block it. How can you allow the person you’re trying to check to have to sign on to blocking himself or he’s not blocked? That makes the Executive branch more powerful than Congress which it’s not supposed to be.
