What 14 republican losers voted against this?
 
Most likely not a bad guess of folks that think like their dear leader that it’s sad to get rid of traitor monuments

Trump at the debates "I got the forts named after confederates changed, I wanted it long before anyone else, they used to tell me you cant so that, but we did, and its beautiful"




So pretty much the same reaction to the Russia sanctions that were approved by a veto proof majority of congress. Yet he takes credit for the sanctions.
 
Big fan of the NDAA these days?

Interestingly this NDAA had more Nays than the previous. by my count the last 2 had 4 Rs against it. This one seems to be holding similar. And I think has less to do with the number of Nays and more to do with less people not voting.

Personally I think it's a stroke of legislative brilliance to sneak something like this into the NDAA, because it basically forces the republicans to vote for it. By my quick reading it seems like the same core people who vote against it keep voting against it, a few fringe ones pop in and out.

We gotta get to a point where we stop trying to sneak pet policies through large bills.

Its why police reform failed
