McConnell says Trump will sign funding bill, declare a national emergency

Cool trolling bro. You may see a Democrat president in as early as two years. And then you’ll get to see a national emergency declaration on gun violence, health care, climate, environment.....

Enjoy the ride!

I don't think health care or gun violence will be as big of an issue once the wall is built. The wall may actually help the climate.

Right now trump and his goons can shove that wall up their asses.....That is all they are going to get
 
Do tell us when all Democrats agreed that a fence....was necessary.....

I know you aren't talking about the Secure Fence Act of 2006. That was for 700 miles, and it was already built.

When did the Democrats agree that we needed thousands of miles of hardened concrete with a big beautiful door?

Wait, so either Trump was running his platform on Democratic ideas for border security like Hatuey said....or he's not, like you are saying?

I have yet to see anything that positively states Trump's idea is a 1000 mile long concrete wall, if you want to show stump speeches, I guess, I don't take too much stock in those, show me the policy that states 1,000 miles of concrete wall
 
So, Trump lied? I’m shocked!

I'm sure the politicians you endorse never lie!

BTW..."Gods delay's aren't Gods denials" We may still be getting that money from Mexico.

That’ll be for a future Democrat president to decide. Now that Trump and Mr Turtle have set the precedent, it’s just a matter of time. I look forward to your whining on the subject when it happens.
 
Which means Trump has more authority to do this than Obama did to do DACA, but his question was about how Republicans would react if Trump were to take similar action.

Trump has changed many policies and changed interpretation of law to accomplish things like family separation and detainment. So what are you arguing, that Trump and Obama should have declared national emergencies to get DACA, reverse DACA, and get the family separation policy? If so, that type of presidential behavior is really inappropriate and an unnecessary abuse of power.
 
I though you Libertarian types were strict "constitutionalists"?.........Sure you are...What a joke

The constitution provides the legislature with the power to make legislation, the legislature passed an emergency clause providing the president specific and limited powers which seem to include building barriers on our border. There is no constitutional problem here

Can you please answer my questions?

When did the Democrats agree that a fence....was necessary. The fence that Donald Trump wants, as I detailed above in his own words.

You don't know what Trump said?

I don’t actually care whether we get a penny from Mexico.

Of course not.

The parents of the 20 first graders killed in their classroom bathroom, huddled on top of each other hiding behind the toilet, will agree wit you that gun violence isn't a big issue.

Obama, Hillary and even Schumer said it..etc. etc.
 
No sir, I have even quoted myself to show you EXACTLY what I referred to. That your reading compression is garbage is pretty obvious: you weren't telling congress to **** itself BEFORE Democrats took control of the House.

I asked you to prove it. You tried to, by posting you complaining about congress not giving Trump his wall 30 days after Democrats took control.

We get it Jack, you goofed. Now you're trying to talk your way out of it by actually expanding the goal posts and say it's about you speaking negatively on congress at any time.

That's weak, even for you.

What is weak, Hat, is you trying to camouflage the fact that you got caught in a false premise fallacy by trying to pretend that me criticizing the GOP house doesn't count because of the timing. You're digging yourself in even further by assuming that this is the only time I've criticized the GOP House.

The failure is yours.
 
So obviously at some point, both Democrats and Republic agreed that a fence....was necessary....

Why isn't it now?

Huh? They just approved 55 miles of more fencing.

Fortunately illegal immigration is at a decade low from all the previous security measures, and they continue to intelligently fund it.

Mental health is a big issue!

Obama and Hillary said they agree with what Trump has proposed? When was that? They aren't in Congress anymore, you know. Haven't been for 10 years or so.

When did Schumer say he agreed with Trump's proposal?

And what wall did Nancy Pelosi vote for?

Because the places they were effective they dealt with at that time...
 
There is a legal mechanism in place, in the National Emergencies Act which gives Congress the power to nullify presidential emergency declarations.

You don't know what Trump said?

When the voted to fund it? Or do you think it just happened on it's own?

I know what Trump said, in stump speeches, I also know what he said in interviews, show me in policy where it's 1000 miles of concrete.....show me where that has made it to paper, you won't be able to, it hasn't. Anyone who thinks that Trump meant 1,000 miles coast to coast, 30 feet tall etc so on and so forth, should probably be restrained from buying bridges.

Those are stump speech words, not policy, show me policy, the only thing that MATTERS, is policy.

So then the argument isn't that it's not necessary, you have clearly stipulated that they are,

It's more of a placement of such fences etc?
