In a veto over-ride you'll need 67. That's 16 DemoQuacks in the Senate to vote for the wall. In the House you'll need another 60 to 70 DemoQuacks to vote for the wall.Quote:

Trumps "achilles heel" is Jared & Ivanka.
Get rid of them!!!
If nothing else we should all be able to agree with that!Quote:

Gohmert says that despite claims from the Senate and House Republican Leadership, GOP lawmakers can pass funding for a border wall in an expedited budgetary process known as “reconciliation” that only requires a majority in the House and a simple majority of 50 votes in the Senate. There are 51 Republicans in the Senate.
Ask someone else here to explain the rules and procedures associated with budget reconciliation bills to you.Quote:

There are enough R's to pass this, they just don't want to, and then you make all these excuses for why they didn't and couldn't.
He didn't explain it correctly or fully to you. Budget reconciliation was used to pass the tax cuts for example. It's never been used for a discretionary annual appropriation bill or an infrastructure type bill. It's also a Senate procedure, not a House procedure. Get someone who likes conversing with you to explain it to you. Or just parrot Gohmert, I don't care.
