@ByronYork if they get the right six, the presidents veto can be circumvented. -
@Mr_Cain_Thaler@ByronYork you need 2/3 of Senate vote to override a veto ....no? i assume thats 67 votes ? -
@DividendMaster oh fuck me it is 2/3. I thought it was a 60 vote threshold -
@Mr_Cain_Thaler Reid needs 60 votes to prevent a fillibuster up front . Bust he'll need 67 to override a veto . -
@DividendMaster yes I had confused the override as needing the same as the filibuster break. 2/3 is steep
