President Trump to veto national defence bill, White House says

Wonder if Republicans will be on board to override his veto or whether they'll cave and DEFUND THE TROOPS.
I've been expecting trump to bluster on this but cave once it comes to his desk and then make a big show about how he loves the troops. It's kind of his go to move. When people call his bluff he usually folds

First he stole from the military to fund a campaign project he failed to fund through Congress despite having the majority, and now this. Yep, he hates the troops, or as he calls them, "losers".
He absolutely isn't. He's daring Republicans to publicly rebuke him by overriding his veto. Hasn't happened once in four years. It's far from a sure thing.
Actually this will be interesting to watch the republicans squirm. Vote no on the re-vote and piss off lots of their base (anti-military) or vote yes and piss off trump.
It's personal against Warren and he can't get his little dick revenge on social media companies unless he gets 230. He's a fucking child but we knew this.
Furthermore: this will complicate Georgia immensely for the Republicans.
Trump is going to fold the last second and claim he cares so much about the troops just you watch.
I wonder how QAnon spins this, when they think he's about to use the military to seize power and remain in office.
I have no doubt they will spin it, it's just fascinating (and terrifying) to watch how they'll spin anything into the 5D chess game.

Only Trump can solve the problem created by Trump. Again. Version #162.
Republicans are too good at controlling the narrative on the masses. There is no way the general public will end up seeing this as an attack on the troops if Republicans don't pass it. Republicans will blame it on the socialists on the Left for it failing and enough will believe it in any way that matters.
If Trump vetoes, Republicans will not pass it. There is no way they will open themselves up to the wrath of Trump or his magats with the Georgia election on the line.
But yeah, I see it entirely possible Trump caves in the end. But at the same time, he also wants to believe he still has power so he very well may use that power to veto this, flex his muscles if you will.
If a legislator votes to pass a bill and then goes back on their own vote when they have enough of a majority to override a veto, then it damages their credibility. Lobbyists won't trust them, it's like they stole their donation money.
LOL @ Republicans worrying about credibility.
It's an interesting dilemma. I'm honestly not sure which way they'll go. If the last four years have taught me anything, they'll side with Trump. ..but it's a lame duck session and McConnell just admitted that Biden won..
