As an attorney my definition of a national emergency is thousands of mostly healthy young males storming our borders and going to the welfare office so we taxpayers can supported them or more likely run up our national debt which hit 22 trillion today.

'Do your duty and leave the rest to the gods.' - Corneille

'What are the chances' that the Post-Fairness Act 'news' plays 'dumb' here- as if, in the end, it cannot marshal its considerable resources and interview Constitutional lawyers to promulgate a 'news story' in real time re 'the underlying Constitutionality' of the operative facts.

Is WSJ asking this as a matter of serious policy or a matter of sappy journalism?

American people should volunteer free labor and suppliers should forego profit and build the wall as an American project for the people of America. A sense of community and national pride. The wall of Proud Americans built by Americans coming together True National Pride.

WE ARE WITH YOU MR. PRESIDENT CLOSE SEAL AND BUILT THE WALL

He may be hitting a brick wall trying to declare a national emergency

Children being murdered in their schools...health care that doesn’t cover poor people...pharmaceutical companies permitted to overcharge for necessary medications...these are not national emergencies...but a wall is? Unconscionable.

Clinton declared a National Emergency to protect Burmese. Bush declared a National Emergency to protect Belarusians. Obama declares a National Emergency to protect Burundians. Trump declared a National Emergency to protect Americans. See the difference?

1st up for the Democratic President in 2020 - declaring the Republican party a national emergency. The GOP is finished. Their only chance of survival is to impeach Trump.

Our CA schools are overcrowded w/unvaccinated kids who don’t want to study; our hospitals are overcrowded with people who don’t pay, causing our ins rates to rise; gangs killing & drugs easily obtained. CA is becoming a third-world State.

Pray tell, what constitutes a national emergency? Less activity at a border than we’ve had in ages? You people are delusional. Perhaps criminal. Lawsuits will ensue.🙄🍿💙🇺🇸

Deep state coup attempt?

Wasn't Mexico going to pay for it?

Finally

Shouldnt sign the bill at all and declare a national emergency 🤷‍♂️

Does this mean the next democratic president can do the same with gun control?
