None.... he waited

2020-12-29 02:42:47 UTC

2020-12-29 02:42:50 UTC

2020-12-29 02:42:53 UTC

2020-12-29 02:43:03 UTC

2020-12-29 02:43:11 UTC

@SoonMrWick I dont think you know what a Pocket Veto is, do you?

2020-12-29 02:43:26 UTC  

Just a neat phrase you heard somewhere

2020-12-29 02:44:00 UTC  

Unbridled cowardness has gotten us to where we are today.

2020-12-29 02:44:01 UTC  

Because what Trump did was not a pocket veto

2020-12-29 02:44:10 UTC  

"As President I am demanding many rescissions under the Impoundment Control Act of 1974."

Is it possible for Pence to split the votes in the “contested” states (where he got duel electors) as he reads them? The Dems would have to get the 1 and 1 to contest, and both majorities to overturn, and Trump hits 270 first as they’re read...

2020-12-29 02:45:10 UTC  

He tried giving it a chance to fix the bill, don't know if it will work.

2020-12-29 02:45:44 UTC  

We've put that in here three times. I can't imagine how he would have missed it. I'm mearly saying there were more options than outright signing it since they would have overruled it with 2/3 vote... and he took one of those avenues. The problem is not trump, the problem is the bill itself. Some people can get over that, some people can't.

2020-12-29 02:47:14 UTC  

No he didnt

2020-12-29 02:47:35 UTC  

He could sign it, veto it or do nothing for 10 days (pocket veto)

2020-12-29 02:47:39 UTC  

He signed it

2020-12-29 02:47:43 UTC  

The bill is now law

2020-12-29 02:47:58 UTC  

But he signed it 2 days too late for people to get their money for this week

2020-12-29 02:48:04 UTC  

They will get it next week

2020-12-29 02:48:14 UTC  

This is not complex

2020-12-29 02:48:50 UTC  

That is all that his delay did, cost unemployed people 300 bucks

2020-12-29 02:48:52 UTC  

I don't think the alternative Elector slates are going to factor in at all... The state legislatures had nothing to do with them. They were a stunt.

2020-12-29 02:49:41 UTC  

Contact your house of representatives rep and have them submit a better bill next time. Stop whining about trump.

2020-12-29 02:49:53 UTC  

But you come back with "every heard of a pocket veto" as if that is what happened. Clearly you have no idea what a pocket veto is...

2020-12-29 02:50:25 UTC  

Wow... that was a Bill passed by BOTH House and the Senate

2020-12-29 02:50:29 UTC  

@SoonMrWick they have an army of Chinese trolls that handle the heavy whining.

2020-12-29 02:50:38 UTC  

Have you ever had a Civics class, @SoonMrWick

2020-12-29 02:51:01 UTC  

Congress.

2020-12-29 02:51:12 UTC  

Same difference. Who writes it.

2020-12-29 02:51:18 UTC  

Yes, Congress is both the House and the Senate

2020-12-29 02:52:13 UTC  

Corporate attorneys and k Street bigwigs..

2020-12-29 02:52:18 UTC  

@SoonMrWick damn, man. My 8th graders are far more up on how government works than you... seriously set down and get some basic info before you start making yourself look foolish

2020-12-29 02:52:22 UTC  

This is true

2020-12-29 02:52:49 UTC  

Shit if they can't read the bill you think they write it? Come on man.

2020-12-29 02:53:07 UTC  

Then contact your senate rep too who didn't write it. That would help less than your house of representatives who is the first leg.

2020-12-29 02:55:12 UTC  

Our final elected officials implicitly trust their owners.
