Does he really want the optics of looking like he is protecting Russia and then having his veto overturned?
I mean, it’s Trump. So he might.
But his veto would be overturned easily.
Trump can use this bill to blow up the new Russian pipeline to Germany if he wants. And thanks to Congress his finger prints won’t be on it. LOL.
This is on the House. Trump can tell Putin his hands are tied, so lets move on to other things.
Pocket veto......
How about “the optics” of caving in and embracing Hillary’s neocon foreign policy, if he does sign it? Trump voters did not elect him for this. Let Congress override his veto. Then he can refer to it in their primary challenges?
Isn’t it amazing that with Trump now as Prez, all of a sudden Congress wants to control the executive branch in respect to foreign policy?
Worthless socialists and GOPe cucks. These are the same folks who won’t pass a clean health care repeal.
If so, it is still the right thing to do - make them work even more closely with the enemy to hinder President Trump.
Wlecome to FR as a relatively new member, you may have missed the calls to keep FR FRee from strings by self-funding via members. Here's a convenient link
Good, let them override it. This is their policy so when it does absolutely nothing to stop any of the countries from doing whatever the heck they want they can take full responsibility. In any event, how much is Trump going to enforce violators. Congress agrees on sanctions (they did they same to Obama). If all of Congress agrees on something then that’s a good enough reason to veto it because they are never right.
