    It would not take that much red cooperation to make overruling a veto be possible.

    Theoretically, yes.

    But I’m not optimistic that it will actually happen.

      Me either, although him being a lame duck that has been repudiated by voters countrywide might make Republicans hesitate to continue following him in lockstep. He’s incredibly unpopular and will be gone in two years.

      I agree. If Trump just pretends to behave then nothing will happen.

      But he knows consequences are actually possible now which hopefully is enough to affect his behavior.

        Does he really?

        Or does he still think that he personally is immune from the consequences of his actions?
