    Lots of fantasy-driven posts here.  There is precisely one GOP senator that would ever upset Trump. If it passes, that means Trump would sign it.  Over-ride his veto?  That’s one check that no longer exists.
    The white house will fold on the demand. 

    I'm saying if it happened to play out where the president vetoed it, even without the over ride,  that means there's a faction of senators who are abandoning the president.

    Maybe but as his approval plunges the GOP will abandon him to save themselves.  Maybe....

    I think this would normally be true but I also think that if the polls stay the same or get a bit worse a lot of people still think that he can pull it off like 2016. Yes it is different for sure since he is the incumbent but there is always that uncertainty and I bet it will be enough that most if any do not jump.

    I don’t mind presidents playing golf.  I can’t imagine being essentially a prisoner at the end of the day in the Oval Office.  I would hate to see what Trump is like when he doesn’t get some fresh air and relaxation.  

    Although with Trump he probably has plenty of time to relax as he doesn’t do anything.

    He watches television until 10 or 11 in the morning.  That's crazy.

    The problem isnt presidents playing golf.
    It's that he complained about President Barack Obama playing golf and he has probably surpassed in 3.5 years what President Barack Obama did in 8.
    And bill's it to the American taxpayer.
    And he does all or most of it at his personal golf courses so that he can bill the American taxpayer for as much as possible.

    Its interesting that many in England can understand what this President is like yet many Americans have no clue what this President is or just don't care. Get out and vote please, people are dying every day and it looks like it's going to get worse.

    I don't know...2016 was closer in the polling so tRump getting his victory was within reason.  Still surprising though.

    This time is different.  If tRump wins this time I will lose all hope for this stupid country.

    Although I did read this morning that her husband was a criminal defense attorney, so he may have been the actual target.
