    Much like just about everything else, according to your laws this isn’t something the US president has the power to do. Blame him if you want- I choose to blame the rest of your country abdicating their responsibility for dealing with it.

      Eh, as much as I don’t like Taco, the Presidential veto is part of our system.

      He’s being a petty vindictive little baby in this case, though. It’s not about an executive check on a legislative branch that’s overstepping.

      It is him putting his personal retribution campaign over the drinking water for 50,000 people.
