Trump veto of Yemen resolution looked certain, but now he may heed call to end US war role


(Worthy News) – President Trump is considering signing legislation that would end the U.S. role in Yemen’s stalemated civil war after his advisers urged him to veto the bill.

Trump’s choice pits his aversion to Mideast wars against concern about the consequences of not routing Iran-allied Yemeni rebels who took over population centers in 2014. Most GOP lawmakers and Trump’s in-house advisers opposed the bill, but it passed with support from some of Trump’s closest allies, including Reps. Mark Meadows, R-N.C., and Jim Jordan, R-Ohio.

Although White House advisers urged a veto, potentially Trump’s second, Trump expressed open-mindedness Thursday, telling reporters, “I’ll look at it.” Since then, he’s made no public remarks amid behind-the-scenes lobbying. [ Source: Washington Examiner (Read More…) ]
