Well, technically he can. Then Congress can just override it with two-thirds majority. Grow those spines — you got this.
So, if this is initially approved with a 2/3 majority can he still veto it and then they have to vote again? Or is there such a thing as a “veto-proof” initial passing?
They always need to vote again, sometimes a president veto will cause a bill to lose support and reps have an opportunity to change their vote.
Sometimes though presidents won't veto if it passes initially at that threshold, depending how embedded they are in their perspective.
Thank you for explaining. I feel like I’m becoming an armchair constitutional process hobbyist this year (against my natural inclinations). I appreciate you, and all the knowledgeable people who take the time to help educate.

TBF, this is basic civics. I'm pretty sure you need to know more than this to take a citizenship test.
Education in this country is woefully deficient.
I doubt every nuance of constitutional procedure and the loopholes by which they can be exploited in multiple branches, and minutiae which may or may not block each of those avenues is basic civics. Yet, here we are needing a daily understanding of all of that to appreciate the impact of each step of the latest chicanery.
Yeah, presidential vetoes is like, Civics 100. I wouldn't have even said anything otherwise. It's not minutiae
Well, good for you for shitting on someone trying to learn and better themselves. Clearly this country needs more people like you.
It seems many of my fellow countrymen/women need to be shamed into learning basic shit about their own government. Don't blame me.
I blame you 100% for discouraging learning rather than encouraging it. Shame is not a motivator. That has been proven over and over in basic epidemiology studies. It’s Psychology 101. It’s an appalling reflection of your basic education that you didn’t know that.
