Its a stall tactic on an otherwise veto proof bill. A pocket veto would just have been overridden

Basically a two month or longer delay at least now that I understand it more. 45 congressional working days... and they're all lazy fucks. Much can happen in two months

Trump doesn't have line item veto power. Period. This has been settled for years.
