    I thought he was vetoing things in order to be fiscally conservative? How does stifling commerce and blocking the potential for greater tax revenue align with that goal?

      He’s vetoing things to create a record of centrist policy decisions in the run up to his inevitable presidential bid. It’s careerism, any other justification he provides is just smoke.
