Donald Trump lashes out at GOP after override vote on defence bill

TIL Desk/World/Washington/ President Donald Trump lashed out at congressional Republicans a day after the House easily voted to override his veto of a defence policy bill.

A total of 109 Republicans, including Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney, a member of GOP leadership, joined with Democrats on Monday to approve the override, which would be the first of Trumps presidency. The Senate is expected to consider the measure later this week.

Trump on Tuesday slammed GOP lawmakers on Twitter, charging that Weak and tired Republican leadership will allow the bad Defence Bill to pass.?

Trump called the override vote a disgraceful act of cowardice and total submission by weak people to Big Tech. Negotiate a better Bill, or get better leaders, NOW! Senate should not approve NDAA until fixed!!!? The 322-87 vote in the House sends the override effort to the Senate, where the exact timing of a vote is uncertain.
