34. I didn't read all your references, but he just said on the MTV town hall that
the difference between him doing this and Truman's act regarding servicemen, is that in this instance a specific law was passed that he has to take the proper procedures to 'un do' it.

He said the House has already given him the go-ahead to use the EO to accomplish this, and he thinks he has the votes in the Senate.

So... is it the Senate that's holding everything up? Again?

Send Biden down to kick some ass and cajole his old colleagues.
