(51,571 posts)1. The irony is that vetoing this gun bill is the first decent thing this miscreant has done in office.
But he will not be missed.

expanded medicaid which is helping a lot of people who didn't have insurance get the care they have needed for sometime.
Other than that...pretty much worthless in my book.

A republican gov. vetoing an N.R.A. backed piece of legislation?
Its hard for a Republican to succeed if the N.R.A. holds a grudge..
and thats for shit sure..

(29,876 posts)7. He also vetoed a bill that would have declassified 'air guns' as firearms that
has really pissed 'them' off too.

My guess is he'll propose some bill that's even far worse in the next four years.
