Trump’s Veto of Yemen War Resolution Protects US Security Interests
James Phillips

President Donald Trump rebuffed congressional efforts to withdraw U.S. support from the war in Yemen on Tuesday, vetoing a bill that would have forced the U.S. to cease support for the Saudi-led Arab coalition fighting against Iran-backed Houthi rebels.

In his veto statement, Trump explained:

    This resolution is an unnecessary, dangerous attempt to weaken my constitutional authorities, endangering the lives of American citizens and brave service members, both today and in the future.

Trump clearly had strong legal, constitutional, and policy reasons for exercising his veto.

Hmm.........whether this resolution is positive or negative
for our interests remains to be determined but for sure
Trump's embarrassingly shallow comments will never,
ever remind anyone Lord Palmerston.
