"I will become Mr. Veto." Trump vows to block Democratic legislative initiatives

"I will become 'Mr. Veto'." Trump has promised to block legislative initiatives from the Democrats should the Republicans lose the U.S. midterm congressional elections.

"If that happens, I suppose I’ll become 'Mr. Veto.' I won’t let them do it. And then, at some point, we’ll probably start making deals. That’s usually how it goes."

"I mean, this certainly wouldn’t be the first time a president has lacked a majority in both the House of Representatives and the Senate. They’ll send me bills, and I’ll veto them. Eventually, after a month or two, once all their initiatives have been rejected, they’ll realize it’s just a waste of time. They’re simply wasting their time."

"Then they’ll come to me, and we’ll reach an agreement. I think that’s most likely how it will play out. But I hope we won’t even have to worry about it at all."
