Is there anything too evil for this clown of a president?
Adam Schiff
Faced with a bill to withdraw U.S. military support for a war that has caused untold suffering for the Yemeni people, President Trump has vetoed it.
The war in Yemen is a humanitarian catastrophe, and we will continue to do all we can in Congress to bring it to an end.Adam Schiff added,

Let’s wait for a response from @RandPaul, who was quick to congratulate @realDonaldTrump for pulling the U.S. out of Syria and who will obviously blast Trump for using a veto to continue the senseless bloodshed in Yemen to support SA murderer MbS
Like a sidewinder, Trump is twisting in the Saudi sands. They have #Jared in their pocket and Big Con Don on their payroll.
Country, children, decency be damned... #McConnell and @GOP Congress have sold America to foreign enemies.
He vetoed the bill because of his connections to the Saudis and Saudi oil investments. #Emoluments
“Gross human rights violations, including what could amount to war crimes, were committed and continue throughout the country to this day. Civilians are trapped in the middle. More than 17,640 have been killed and injured and a man-made humanitarian crisis has spiralled with”
His reason for vetoing it us treacherous!!! He said it weakened his power.
No, there is not. Between trump and mcconnell China is now poised to be the new world economic driver. IMHO Russiagate, caravans and all manner of crazy has been a distraction. Everything trump has done benefits foreign powers and weakens America. Chinese corporate interests have given hugely to mcconnell's reelection campaigns for years. American connections to Saudi Arabia go deep and no one wants to rock that boat.
Saudi Arabia acts as a US proxy in the war in Yemen. The Americans provide the logistics, and the aircraft. The Saudis supply the pilots. Without the Americans, it is doubtful the Saudis would be willing to continue the air strikes. Trump is apparently hoping to boost aircraft sales! At the expense of Yemeni lives. Some "President" we have, huh?
