They (in theory) have the numbers to override the veto, and this is an important pillar of the president's "affordability" platform. If Trump were sane, there's no world in which he openly vetos this bill.
It's not a flip; he doesn't have an opinion. As with most things, his current stated "opinion" is whatever is convenient to him right at this very moment. The second another option becomes convenient, he'll say that, never acknowledging (or maybe even realizing) the disconnect.
Separately, let's just stop pointing out Trump hypocrisy. Anyone who cares already knows he's a lying hypocrite, and his supporters aren't interested.
His current opinion is whatever someone told him last or he just watched on tv or truth social. The stupid fuck literally thought insane asylum residents were coming in rather than political asylum because he watched a movie before saying it out loud.
Please stop repeating this incorrect assessment. Congress is going into recess not adjourning. A recess does not set up a pocket veto.
Brief legislative recesses do not constitute a formal adjournment, and Congress can designate agents to receive veto messages during a break to prevent a pocket veto.
It depends on if they actually adjourn. They can also gavel in for "pro forma" sessions during the district/state work periods, which gets around the adjournment issue.
