Trump would be correct to assert a national emergency in order to build the wall

[sawyerloggingon]

He's president not dictator and you do what you can when you can politically in a democratic republic.

Really? Interesting.

So you’re saying he can’t declare an emergency?

He can but it's a last resort and it looks like he may have to.

Which is my question….

If it was an “emergency”, he would have campaigned on it in 2015, 2016 and declared it on 1/20/2017.
Emergencies are things that can’t wait.
He’s waited 2+ years.

Bigger emergency was the economy. First things first. First you fix the leaking roof and then the rotting floor.

Again, the economy was fine. Besides, what law did Trump pass for the economy? And why couldn't Trump tackle a "national emergency" at the same time as keeping the economy trending upwards?

economy was "fine" if you think average 2%GDP with mostly low wage part time jobs being created is fine. Trump dissolved Obama job killing executive orders, lowered corporate taxes, got us out of bad trade deals, said yes to coal and oil, got rid of Obama care mandate, took on China unfair trade polices got the oil pipeline built and in general created a business friendly America from the ashes of Obama's socialism policies.
By the way Obama's last full quarter GDP was trending down, way down.

American citizens are being victimized by millions of illegals and it is clear that the U.S. Congress is unwilling to protect their American constituents.

However, I'm not confident that the SCOTUS is willing to defend the American people and it's possible that they would ultimately rule that Trump cannot protect the people.

He needs to shit or get off the terlit as far as I am concerned it is going on three years now and he has yet to do what is necessary.

There is no express immigration clause or express wall building clause. Our welfare clause is general for the general welfare not the general warfare.

 

[strollingbones]

and there is still no reason that trump waited till he didnt have gop control of both house and senate...why is that?
if it was such an emergency why has he waited?

 

[K9Buck]

Congress has abdicated its responsibility to protect the American people. Therefore, Trump must declare an emergency and build the all-important barriers.

Smuggling drugs, weapons trafficking, prostitution of minors are all crimes of their own merit
Crossing a border to save your family is the equivalent of trespassing

I guess no one told any of these folks (as much as you Dimocrats do) how dangerous America is.
Aren't you (and your fellow anti-Americans) the ones perpetually going on about all the gun violence and
all the fascists racist white people?

How is crossing a border into such a terrible and dangerous place relative to saving their family?
You encourage people to flock here saying it's for their "safety", simultaneously claiming America is one of the most dangerous places on earth due to gun ownership.

Which is bubba? Can't be both.

HINT: IT ISN'T and it just displays your hypocrisy and propensity to serve Bullshit relentlessly.

Sorry, I tried
I really did

But your post was just too stupid to respond to

And Trump has two more years and feds stopped raising interest rates.

Feds were raising rates too often too fast and slowed the economy too much. Now they are backing off.

But...but
Trump promised 4 percent GDP

Where in our federal Constitution is Congress delegated any power over immigration or wall building?

And he was on the road to precisely that which is what spooked the feds and made them start raising rates fast and furious. Now they have backed off and things will get moving again. Trump has two more years then four more.

We have a general welfare clause and a commerce clause; why not come up with a fine and wonder and capital solution instead of the national socialism of a static wall.
