    Lindsey Graham spills the beans: Trump will declare a national emergency even if he signs bipartisan





    Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), one of Donald Trump’s biggest allies in the Senate, said Tuesday that he expects the president to declare a national emergency to get his border wall built — even if he signs the bipartisan spending deal drafted by members of Congress.

    USA Today’s Eliza Collins tweeted that Graham expects Trump will “both declare a national emergency and try to find money elsewhere in order to bridge the gap between $1.375 in the Congressional deal and the $5.7 billion he’s demanded for his wall.”

    CNN’s Manu Raju tweeted earlier in the afternoon that Graham had, at the time, not yet spoken to Trump about the deal the president bashed to pool reporters earlier in the day.

    Raju noted that Graham wants the president to accept the deal “if it shows he can reprogram money with respect to the detention beds AND if he can use the money to build steel barriers.”

    If he does, against the wishes of the party, he will divide the party & then the shit really hits the fan
    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

    I know, right?

    Because all he has to do is go back on his word?

    He ended the shut-down for three weeks to give Congress time to debate it. They did, and 'the deal' is the result.

    If Trump signs it, he is accepting it.

    But what's to keep him from reneging on that acceptance and declaring the (nothing has changed) situation at the border a 'national emergency' and spending the FEMA money meant for hurricane and fire victims on partial wall sections?

    That's not building a wall if you just have to go further to get to the end of the partial segments to walk around the end of it!

    I do not see a national emergency. declared I see trump simply taking money from other agency budgets and doing exactly what he wants. However, the 6 billion is not the wall. It is more like 50 to 70 billion.

    And that means what to you? That he won’t do it?

    I don’t know if he will or won’t. I know that he isn’t going to give up

    Remember this only funds through September so.......
