Yeah, I can’t imagine that Trump won’t veto it.
But it irritates me that they are working at cross purposes to Trump.
They passed that with a unanimous voice vote.

I hope Trump has a large, page-wide veto stamp and does it on live camera then shows the stamped page to the camera.

Are there “bill-vetoing” ceremonies, just as there are “bill-signing” ceremonies? If so, your big rubber stamp would be a great prop.

We need a tax on business that operate in the United States that charges a fee for every offshore employee or money transfer offshore.

Observe above image, and it is easy to conclude we can hurt China manufacturing by $506 Billion, whereas China can hurt us MAXIMUM $130 Billion. Who is likely to blink first? If China loses $506 Billions worth of manufacturing, there will be a million man march looking for their leader XI, who will then escape to Taiwan seeking asylum.
