I wonder if it’s to dissuade a situation where a president runs with an appropriate VP on his ticket, then dumps him after the election and nominates “his guy” for whatever reason. As a reward or for profit or whatever. Initially the American people have a role in choosing the VP - they can either vote for the candidate with his VP or not. But after taking office there would be no checks and balances without congressional oversight. Just speculation

Because he kicks it back with his edits, they refuse, then THEY are the ones fucking the American people over, not him by vetoing it. They either capitulate or commit political suicide by denying people the help they need
