Senate passes Defense Authorization Act with veto-proof majority, daring Trump to veto it as he promised

CNBC reports the Senate passed the National Defense Authorization Act by a veto-proof 84-13 majority, sending the bill to lame duck president Donald Trump, who has vowed to veto the bill.

Trump claims he objects to the $740 billion bill because it would provide a path to rename military bases and systems that were named after secessionist Confederate leaders and because it does not include a provision to revoke Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, which provides social media outlets like Facebook and Twitter with protections against defamation claims for material posted by users.

The House passed the NDAA on Wednesday with a veto-proof 335-78 vote.

The passage of the NDAA with strong Republican support signals waning support for Trump’s bellicose rhetoric to legitimately compromise national security as he faces his last days in office.  While 106 Republican House members have supported the Texas lawsuit to disenfranchise tens of millions of voters to hand the election to Trump, few actually believe it will be upheld by the Supreme Court and many view it as a wink-and-a-nod to Trump’s ego with little political repercussions for the members, who come from deep red districts.
