It’s great that she’s gonna veto a bad bill, but isn’t it counterproductive to democracy if a president can just veto what the parliament does? Like one person holding the power of a whole parliament?

Once vetoed the bill goes back to the legislative branch, where they can overrule a veto if it reaches a certain supermajority. Or they could change it and send it back up the line as a new bill
