The US Chamber of Commerce comes out against the declaration of "national security lol".
Also, let's hear from this former Representative:The organization's president Thomas Donohue wrote Friday that a decision to reallocate funding for a border wall, thereby circumventing Congress' appropriations powers, through a national emergency would "erode" the U.S. system of government.
"We have long fought against attempts by the executive branch to usurp the powers of Congress and to create law, such as we have seen in recent decades with the rise of the regulatory administrative state," Donohue wrote in a statement, adding: "We have also fought against attempts by the Congress to usurp the power of the executive."
"The declaration of national emergency in this instance will create a dangerous precedent that erodes the very system of government that has served us so well for over 200 years," Donohue continued.
"The U.S. Chamber urges the president not to attempt to declare a national emergency. Instead, we urge the president and members of Congress of both parties to negotiate and find common ground on immigration and border security."
"Sounds like a Democrat to me."Former Rep. Mike Rogers told CNN on Friday that McConnell was not happy to endorse Trump's plan to declare a national emergency in order to reallocate funding for construction of a border wall.
“You’re watching Mitch McConnell eat a manure sandwich in this whole process," Rogers said, adding that McConnell was most concerned with averting another government shutdown.
"You can tell, in the mannerisms, in the body language, in the language itself, of Mitch McConnell...he's where he is because he thought it would be expedient to make sure the government didn't shut down," he added.
"He's not yet enjoying that manure sandwich this morning," he quipped again, moments later.
He's a Republican.
"Okay, but he's probably some no-name Rep."
He was in office seven terms. He headed the HIC for two of them, 2011 to 2015. Yes, he worked personally with McConnell.

lmao, he hopes his sycophants in SC will save him.“We will then be sued,” after signing the declaration, Trump says.
“And we will possibly get a bad ruling, he says: “And then we’ll end up in the Supreme Court.”

That's what Rapey McKavanaugh was put there for. Wasn't Trump the one that said "We'll see how he turns out" when it came to protecting his tax returns? Originally Posted by Hextor

Trump uses bullshit he can't back up when asked about it live lolJim Acosta, who the president doesn’t like, asks Trump why he is declaring a national emergency at a time when statistics show undocumented immigration has just dropped to its lowest level in a decade.
“You don’t really believe that stat do you?” Trump says. That stat comes from his own government.
Trump says he has seen statistics which contradict the numbers reported by the government’s Customs and Border Protection bureau.
The president is asked where he is getting those statistics from.
“I use many stats,” Trump says.

This is evidence he'll almost certainly be asked to present when challenged in the courts. Originally Posted by Hextor

Trump, desperate to deflect attention from his failing...
(checks news)
...everything, moves the goalposts on his failure in North Korea by saying Obama would have waged war on North Korea.
Obama had eight years. He didn't do it. Again, Trump said he would get the best bestiest best deal, NK played him for a fool in exchange for a hamburger, and now Trump is trying "it could be worse if it was someone else with experience".

He might be the only one who does vote in Trump's favor. I cant see the rest of the Republicans on the court agreeing, since this is such an overreach of authority. Originally Posted by Dontrike

"I know but I'm not telling" is something special coming from the White House. It's not like such data would be classified. It is, however, fictional. Originally Posted by lorddrako

You have to look at it from this perspective in my opinion.
Trump supporters don't care about, truth, decency, respect to law and order. They care about what he tries to do, that is put immigrants on the level of animals, to abuse power to hit all those supporters find enemies to their believes. Someone that validates their insecurities and fear of what they don't know or understand.
So they are going to be pleased with this and even if it doesn't work out, it's going to be fault of everyone else, other politicians and judges that don't listen to him, i wouldn't be surprised if he tries to get people to get angry at the courts and judges, Wouldn't be surprised if someone got shot again.
All Trump needs is a pasty, he isn't punished for his failures, he's only punished for not trying.

I'm really sorry, but, did you mean pasty, patsy, or pastry? Trump loves avoiding blame, is a giant obese fatass, and loves big fake tits, so you're really going to have to clarify. Originally Posted by Acidbaron

Trump calls Coulter a covfefe girl and that he doesn't know her.
When the chips are down, these... these conservative people, they'll eat each other.

Trump expresses dismay that Congress, one member in particular (*cough* Paul Ryan *cough*) didn't move on the Wall faster.
"I mean, they were supposed to do their job and push for something the American people neither need, nor want, nor can afford. What else were they supposed to do while I was golfing and tweeting?" Trump added from the WH Rose Garden, the only outdoors he can reach because he's too fat to fit through the front doors.
