Trump to declare emergency over wall

TheFatPlumber · February 15, 2019, 4:46pm

Border Wall bill:

$1.37b for a fence

$3.4b for refugee assistance

$5.3b for Israel, Ukraine, and Jordan

Congress is a joke. President Trump got owned.

They didn’t want to compromise…remember the #resist movement? Plus, legislatures were using a super majority (not a majority) to get things through, which slowed them down.

This is a beautiful thing. I had not really seen the details before.

Thanks for posting these. Clears up a lot of the misinformation.

The caravans hadn’t yet been ordered to overwhelm our system.

Call_me_Ishmael · February 15, 2019, 5:08pm

One could. But the fix still can’t be unconstitutional.

Climate science is not as valid and provable as court dockets backed up for 18 months, detainment facilities overwhelmed and jails overloaded with non-citizens.

It is a good policy to press.

It would be extremely foolhardy to try this on firearms.

I could envision the attempt on health care and it would be fended off.

Obama declared national emergencies 13 times. How was Yemen a “national emergency”?

Thehollowmen · February 15, 2019, 6:10pm

we’ve been seeing caravans for years.

Camp · February 15, 2019, 6:13pm

That means its time to act.

Pragmatic · February 15, 2019, 6:18pm

When asked about the national emergency declaration Trump admitted that “he didn’t need to do this” but that “he did it because he wanted the wall built faster”

Hahahahahahaha

Yes, and it is time to turn them back around to their own countries.

If they want to live in a country like the United States then they can spend their blood and treasure doing so, not borrowing ours for their personal gain.

Call_me_Ishmael · February 15, 2019, 6:25pm

…like when ambulances and fire trucks speed to save people and property. Emergency.

Call_me_Ishmael · February 15, 2019, 6:26pm

Naaaa… nice try…
The Soros sponsored caravan that was intended to derail the election started just last year. Anything called a caravan prior to that was not an emergency. So your buddy Soros screwed your pooch. Now we have evidence of an emergency.

You can’t just snap your fingers here and have it deleted either. What will you do?

Pragmatic · February 15, 2019, 6:40pm

Aren’t you special. You pulled up a trend that shows the public searching habits for the terms “caravans” and “border”

That doesn’t prove that caravans didn’t exist before 2016… it proves that people didn’t start searching for those terms heavily until 2016. And what happened in 2016? Oh yes Trumps election.

Stop using google… you are hurting yourself.

Pragmatic · February 15, 2019, 6:41pm

Sure buddy. He just stepped on his own dick with that statement.

Call_me_Ishmael · February 15, 2019, 6:47pm

You don’t read graphs very well, do you…it was next to zero in 2016. Jamaican school system?

Here dude, maybe this will help.

Pragmatic · February 15, 2019, 7:05pm

Your clarification doesn’t change anything… you used trending search terms to rebut hollowmen and claim that caravans didn’t exist until Trump was president.

Lack of Search trends doesn’t equal “it didn’t happen in real life”

The fact that the search terms became popular when Trump was president makes sense. Because he created this fake crisis by demonizing caravans that have been happening for years.
