There is nothing to Veto.

The Law giving the POTUS to power enact National Emergency measures was passed right after Nixon Resigned.

The vile Botoxian should go back to tending to her Samoan slaves and leave America and the People alone.

Are you sure the president can veto a repeal resolution? I’m not sure it takes his approval to go into effect

If the court ultimately rules that he’s acting within the scope of the National Emergencies Act, then the only thing they could do is repeal that act by a veto-proof vote - and there’s no chance they could do that.

They all answer to the sound of money. We know they are for sale. All that is going on now is haggling over the price.

Its my understanding that the Congress doesn't get a vote when a National Emergency is declared.

So putty face needs so shut her derp hole.

RINOS (AKA Democrats), maybe. The people who voted for/support Trump no so much. Nice try, Nancy.

“Does it require a simple majority in each chamber?”

Yes, once they overcome the Senate filibuster.

60 votes in the Senate to get it to a floor vote.

That means Dims need 13 defectors/traitors.

With all of us breathing down their necks, assuring them their political career is over should they vote wrong.

Won’t happen.

Not because they believe in this cause, because most are against it. But because they value their career above all else.

Every single person I know who voted for Trump, like me support him more each day! A couple of the people I know have even cut of their Satelite TV. Sick and tired of her and her ilk. Way beyond sick and tired.

Yes, the president gets to veto repeals, as Obama did on a bill to partially repeal his health care law.

“The Law giving the POTUS to power enact National Emergency measures was passed right after Nixon Resigned.”

And he doesn’t even need that law to act. Article 2 and Article 4 section 4 gives him plenary authority and under Article 4, he is compelled to protect the states from invasion

Ya. she is right. GOP is rats with different name.
Been sayin’ it for awhile now:
GOPe = RAT = UniParty = Deep State = Communist = Fake Americans
There is NO two-party system...just the UniParty. UniParty vs. Trump...and us.
