Illegal immigration has already "cost" taxpayers 5 times the amount Trumps wanted for border wall funding. Dems want to play partisan politics and that crap goes both ways in D.C.
I don't like it, but Trump should do what he needs to get this done.
Personally I think he should just declare the emergency and not sign that stupid bill that has excessive spending in it.
1100 pages I think it was or some crazy crap? I'd say no to that much reading every time.

I'm not sure if any POTUS has ever declared a national emergency because he couldn't get Congress to cooperate with his agenda... but I do know executive orders and actions have been used and overused by every sitting POTUS since I can remember.

Since 1976 POTUS' have declared 59 states of emergency not related to weather events and disasters.

Many of which have to do with FOREIGN affairs.
Yeah..... real good use of presidential power.

going back to George Washington, the President has had more leeway to act unilaterally in foreign affairs than in most other areas.
My fellow southpaw Mark Brunell will probably always be my favorite Jaguar.
