Maybe armored vest. January 6 is our hope. I have no envy of what he has been through -- for us -- for 4 years, and especially no envy for this last 3 months. He has my admiration as well as my respect, and I'm hoping every one of us recognizes it and sees him the same way. It's like he has to carry some vast, grim secrets to protect us, to protect our nation. Any parent knows a tiny percentage of how that feels.
Update / Edit: He had his fingers crossed -- he signed it under the Impoundment Control Act of 1974, "redlining" things he's requiring Congress to "work on." https://budget.house.gov/publications/report/impoundment-control-act-1974-what-it-why-does-it-matter
... and appears he had a "King's X", in the Impoundment Control Act, in his pocket! https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefings-statements/statement-from-the-president-122720/
You appear to be correct that our President sent back a signed "redline". I saw and heard the OAN alert and report, which was a program interruption and very brief. It therefore didn't include the Impoundment Control Act action (the authority for him to "redline" provisions).
No fight with your opinion. Truly strong men (and truly strong women) recognize that the genders think, work and react differently, adapt to use those completing traits to best advantages. "Tie-breakers" in strong differences usually fall on the men's shoulders, so they gotta be sure they're right in their position/s, or prepared to adapt to the alternative/s.
Hundreds, thousands, maybe millions, more reasons to Stop the Steal and free our nation, so that other nations have the strength and courage to free theirs.
