"Trump, questioned by @PeterAlexander, concedes there’s no national emergency to justify building his wall. “I didn’t need to do this.� “I just want to do it faster.� A gift to all the lawyers preparing to sue him."

Joyce Alene on Twitter: "Trump, questioned by @PeterAlexander, concedes there’s no national emergency to justify building his wall. “I didn’t need to do this.� “I just want to do it faster.� A gift to all the lawyers preparing to sue him."

Trump just had another "I will own the shutdown" moment, guaranteeing that an injunction will be upheld and further illustrating why Presidents use teleprompters.

The whole point of declaring a national emergency is to what? Yep...get it done quickly.

He tried going the Congress route and they insisted on dicking around and wasting time. Trump decided that enough time is wasted. He'll just go ahead and deal with the emergency.

Lol, are you seriously under the impression that 2,000 miles of wall as a federal government project is going to get done "quickly"? Man you guys are delusional. This will take many YEARS.

Yep.

Number of trump supporters that care = 0

Amazing. The president is literally stating in public that this is not an emergency but he will declare it one any way just to get what he wants. This is the most anti-american, corrupt president in the history of the country.

Now that money won't be the issue, I think you'll be surprised at how quickly it'll get done.

As I understand it, it's when one platform tries to read the html from another platform and has a heart attack as a result.

Trump supporters also didn't care when Trump took ownership for the shutdown. The fact that they didn't care wasn't enough to make a difference.

Grandpa is off the ****ing rails. It’s like calling 911 and saying “I don’t need to do this but show up anyway”

I'm old enough to remember Republicans pretending to be outraged when Obama talked about having a phone and a pen.
 
Here's the video. I expect it to be played infinity times in courtrooms across the country.

It's amusing to watch the anti-Trumpers twist his words into oblivion, isn't it?

Circumvent Constitutionally appointed powers to fulfill half of a campaign promise which the majority of Americans do not want, according to you.

He’ll employ the cash at hand, and when they get their win in the courts, it’s Game over for the Open Borders Left.

Congress gave him the power.

It’s Constitutional.

What Obama did with DACA wasn’t.

Ah. Interesting. I'm going to rob a bank so I can buy a car today, and after I'm arrested I'll tell the cops, "I was just employing the cash at hand."

They won't be endless, though they will be an annoyance.
