@boschepg: I walk back into this post and now people are talking about circumcisions? I don't get where this post has gone, I've got a lot of catching up to do...lol
@willpayton: This has been a bad week for Trump. Why is he bashing a dead man in John McCain? Why doesn't he sign the limit of Presidential Emergency Power?
@buttersdaman000: No, the powers came from the 1970s cuz as I said its faster to get the Executive (President) to do it in an emergency than Congress - thus the abdication. Out of the 136 filed only 12 got through Congress. Its faster to go through the executive and the Legislative never restricted the power even though they are the 1st article of government. GOP today did not give 45 grounds cuz it was already in the law. DEMs don't like it now cuz 45 is using it. Supreme Court isn't going to restrict the rights of the President in this matter. They never do. Hell, I didn't agree with the trans military ban but the Supreme Court has upheld it so far. Most of the national emergencies on record have something to do with money spent thus why I think he is getting his wall. It needs to get Amended anyways since there is no way any President is going to get 67 votes to suppress the emergency for an actual check. Its just political. More so on the DEMs
I meant using the powers in a way they weren't intended, like declaring a national emergency to get a wall built. There's no emergency. Trump set the precedent. Instead, you're trying to flip it on the Democrats.
I know what you meant,. Illegal crossings are at its highest since 2007 and we have spent more in the past 5 months on housing and medical treatment of the influx that isn't sustainable on the national budget. Its about money and not being able to sustain it since they are not paying taxes. That is the emergency. Not the actual people crossing. Its us taking care of people that aren't American citizens with tax dollars. The Korean War had less ground to stand on than the wall and that got through. Supreme Court is going to upheld it and the Legislative don't have enough votes to beat Trumps veto. Its perfectly legal. DACA not so much, yet the DEMs keep trying to keep that in effect. Why is one's emergency more correct than the others. Its a Democratic political game.

Pelosi said she would reject the GOP bill to limit national emergencies - cuz it wouldn't effect Trumps border issue. Its no surprise cuz we all know the DEMs wanted to use it for global warming and gun control. This is coming from the woman that said she would want to raise the Supreme Court judges cuz Trump has nominated two to make court 5-4 (which it has been) (per Rueters)
Why did you turn this around on the Democrats?? Trump and the GOP are the ones who opened the flood gates. They're just playing in the game he created.
I didn't turn it on the Democrats. I stated above that the legislative has abdicated too much power to the Executive cuz it wouldn't be on their voting record. I don't even know what Pelosi would have to do with it since its a law. Im stating that the DEMs want to shift rules to favor their desires. The nuke option was created by the DEMs cuz they thought the GOP wasn't playing fair with Obama but it created severe partisan schism. Pelosi doesn't want to back it cuz we all know as I said they were going to try and use national emergency on their platform. Limiting National Emergency power is actually a good thing, but Pelosi doesn't want it cuz they didn't get their chance to use it..

Im having troubles with links so let me put some political news out there
Trump set to nominate two judges to the 9th circuit ignoring DEM senators plea (per ABC) - my thought - he doesn't have to not fill it. The 9th circuit is a federal court in California. It doesn't belong to California. The article is BS too cuz Schummer talked about lacking qualifications and getting more moderate judges. Funny thing is, its always the conservative judges that swing moderate and not the liberal judges. And GOP vote on pure qualifications more than play political. Just look historically at vote counts. History is saying Schummer is BS
McConnell may bring up legislation to limit Presidential Emergencies to keep GOP for voting against Trumps national emergency. Its actually a 30 day limit but I agree with this. The legislative has abdicated too much to the executive. (per the Hill)
