Some of us just think in terms of the welfare of the country.


Not "winning" by pissing off the other side, which seems to be most of the goal of Trumpies.

The country got a minor win with both houses of Congress rejecting this unconstitutional power grab by the exec branch. Doubtful we have enough statesmen in the Senate to override the likely veto, but if 8 repub senators defected to the cause of good Constitutional governance, that would be a major win for the country.

Even for you Tom. You'll be on much stronger footing when President Bernie tries this tactic to institute the Green New Deal after Congress rejects it.
