    Don't doubt me.
    If so, why didn't he declare an emergency then?

    His brother joined the family business, and bankrupted it?

    March 1988: The New York Times says Trump is worth $3 billion when he buys the Plaza Hotel in Manhattan for $390 million.

    I do not doubt you, Dog...I just note that you are full of shit.

    The Republicans had control of the Senate for the first two years of the abomination's administration. They also had control of the House.

    Trump did not get his wall at that time.

    Only a fucking jerk-off would "blame" the Democrats for Trump not getting his absurd wall.

    In any case, it takes a bunch of jerk-offs to suppose that Donald Trump has, or will have, kept his promise to build a great, beautiful reinforced, 30' concrete wall from sea to shining sea and to have Mexico pay for it.

    But most of us knew that all Trump supporters are jerk-offs.

    Hope the weather is nice where you are, Dog. We're still cold up here.

    Clearly, like the Berlin Wall before it, and Brexit now, it is a full-scale attempt to bore everyone to death. Why bother building the bugger when you can be a bore anyway?

    Hey, Frank.

    Saying that a person is “full of ....” was not allowed in formal debate at Vanderbilt. I know, this isn’t formal debate. Speaking of debate, my girlfriend at the time told me that she would be nicer to me if I tried out for the debate team. I did and she was.

    I believe you are going to get another blast of winter up there. Snow and ice. Florida? Georgia? You are never too old to...

    Yes, of course I have. I did not address that, though. You have heard the expression "control of the Senate"...right?

    Put "control of the Senate" into Google...and see what you find.

    "Control of the Senate", for the record, is not the same as being able to pass anything it wants to pass. Bringing that up is just a way for Trump supporters to dodge the reality of the fact that the Republicans had control of both houses of Congress during the first two years of Trump's presidency...and he got as much money for his wall from the congress as he got from Mexico.

    There is absolutely no doubt whatsoever that "control of the Senate" was in the hands of the Republicans during, Donald Trump's, first two years. That is what I said in my post...and no intelligent person would argue against that.

    And no intelligent person would argue against the fact that the abomination did NOT get his wall at that time. That also is what I said.


    of course you havn't, you could google on subjects before you opine, would make for a much more intelligent conversation
    Good grief, Getin, why would you even think that?

    Of course I knew...and had no need to Google it.

    But it is early...and perhaps you confused "controlling the Senate"...with being able to pass anything you want.

    It is an innocent mistake and you shouldn't feel too terrible about it.

    Have some coffee...and you'll be able to see more clearly.

    Don't doubt me.
    So you admit that some repubs were willing to "put the security of the American people at risk", well done.

    Can you explain why those repubs were willing to "put the security of the American people at risk", since the GOP is supposed to be the only party that cares about national security.

    Also, some Dems were willing to go along with the wall in exchange for getting a path to citizenship for the DREAMERS.

    Now that trump will try to do an end run around Congress to get wall money, is a path to citizenship for DREAMERS still on the table?

    Everything you write has to be checked for factual accuracy, sorry about that.

    The whole basis of the Potus declaring a national emergency on the southern border necessitating a wall is factually and legally specious.
    Basically, and forgive me as I am far more perceptive than you Trumpkins, and so I constantly find myself talking down to you, this is an
    act of desperation by a trapped animal. Trump is going down and he knows it. He thinks a wall can save his ass. He knows he can't have it
    funded legally because nobody wants it and everyone hates his guts and they don't want to help him. So it's a stunt. He knows this won't stand.
    There is no question a potus has authority to declare a national emergency and take property and apply it to an end. But with every grant of
    authority there are two thing, abuse and use. The courts will declare this an abuse of authority due to the objective facts showing this is not an actual
    emergency, and his admission that it is not exigent.

    Yes Repukes, you are far too stupid to understand this. So, for me it is just what I see, and for you, as with most things, it will be a foul surprise.

    In 1976, Congress passed the National Emergencies Act, which permits the president to pronounce a national emergency when he considers it appropriate. The act offers no specific definition of “emergency” and allows a president to declare one entirely at his or her discretion.
