Except the bill passed, it’s just that Trump vetoed it.
this is precisely my point. bills make it out of congress for political theater reasons all the time in order for the president to veto it. look at all the times republicans put ACA repeal in front of Obama, then virtually collapsed trying to do the same after Trump took office.
don't confuse theater for actual commitment. Yemen started under Obama.
The house successful overrided the veto and the Senate missed it by fairly small margin of votes. There's substantial bipartisan support for ending this shit, and the killing of Jamaal Kashogi does play a meaningful role in why democrats have flipped their position on Saudi Arabia expanding their power.
