The power of the President to refuse to approve a bill or joint resolution and thus prevent its enactment into law is the veto. … This veto can be overridden only by a two-thirds vote in both the Senate and the House. If this occurs, the bill becomes law over the President's objections.

I don't trust McConnell.
He doesn't have to veto it, he can just not sign it. if there are not 2/3 majority votes in both houses the bill dies.
I agree. he should have made them force it. I think it is better optics. This just looks like a cave.
First I was under the impression he won't actually get it until next week. So I didn't know he already signed it. If not until next week, the shutdown should already happen.
Stop trying to make us think you are getting laid. kek
