re: #215 Sir John Barron

Left unsaid is there’s an option that can pass and won’t get signed by prez but can still be implemented if Senate votes to override.

I have a hard time believing the GOP mob will let the GOP Senate override mr. magadoo.

I think that’s why McConnell has, so far, been sticking to his guns about not allowing an unsignable bill onto the Senate floor. He knows full well that at some point, enough Republicans will be talked into overriding the veto. He is holding the line because if he caves on this, it will pass (and override the veto, to boot), and he will look like a coward AND he will have gone against the tangerine wankmaggot, which will infuriate his base - and he knows he’s already shot himself in the other foot with everyone else, which was intentional.
