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.
Did dubya declare a national emergency when the 2 towers were attacked?
Now THAT was a national emergency.
Taking billions of dollars from the Pentagon to build a wall is NOT a national emergency.
Especially since immigration levels to America are the lowest since 2000.
Yep folks - since 2000, the lowest levels of immigration to America were in 2017 and 2018. 2017 can partly be attributed to President Obama's excellent border protection policies.
But immigration increased slightly in 2018 - which is all thanks to trump. So instead of just increasing funding for border protection eg. hiring more border personnel, trump has a massive hissy fit , shuts down the government for 35 days which cost the government over $5 BILLION and is now declaring a FAKE national emergency.
And who did he speak to before doing this? Probably Steve Bannon, Stephen Miller, Jared and Ivanka, Pompeo and Bolton.
And he LIED again about how the Pentagon officials he spoke to all said he was doing the right thing.
STOP FUCKING LYING YOU FUCKING ORANGE CUNT.
