Veto Man

Anyone remember the song ‘ I am Iron Man’ by Black Sabbath? The opening line just substitute veto for iron and you have Donald Trump.

One of the verses in that song, actually the chorus, is

Nobody wants him
He just stares at the world
Planning his vengeance
That he will soon unfurl

That’s where Donald Trump is right now. Kind of scary isn’t it?

He has said that everything that the Democrats pass in the house and Senate he will veto. He is still the president and he has total control.

He is capable of doing it, and he most likely will unless things dramatically change

So what should the Democrats do about this? They will have close to 260 seats in in the house and most likely 56 seats of the Senate. Donald Trump‘s veto powers can be overridden by a 2/3 majority. Which would mean 290 congressional votes and 67 Senate votes.

All the Democrats have to do to acknowledge what the voters voted them in for. The voters want affordable healthcare they want affordable prices they want an end to the Iran war. The Dems just need to vote and pass this type of legislation. Then once Trump Vetos legislation, put the pressure on the remaining Republicans to say this is what the voters wanted now either support your lame duck, dead duck president or support what the voters want. Put the ball in the Republican court.

Either way if the Republicans don’t come through the voters will let them know in 2028. If the Republicans do come through, and override the Trump veto, then the voters will get what they wanted.

All Trump is doing by vetoing everything that might come to his desk is accelerating the death of the Republican Party.
