There’s the horrible, horrible thought that a Democrat might be President again some day and use the “national emergency” ploy to implement some horrible socialist agenda like medical coverage for all or even gun seizures! After all, more people die of curable conditions and gun violence in the U.S than immigrant policy. What to do, what to do. It’s almost unbearable.
He must’ve heard Gaetz warning that a 45 “national emergency” over the “border crisis” could enable a Democratic “national emergency” over insufficient transgender bathroom construction. And the possibilities don’t end there…how about a national emergency after the next school shooting, immediate impoundment of all assault rifles? The ol slippery slope…
Just the opposite. I had a Nat Emerge by midnight tonight.
We both lost, as did the country.
Still plenty of time in Dotard world. Once he gets done watching FUX News.
Yep. At least Kushner is capable of that horrible thought.
“We want Congress to do its job. What we’re not looking to do right now is national emergency.”
Hey, Mitch … I think he’s talking to you.
And would someone tell the former reality TV show host that if it’s really an “emergency” that means it needs immediate attention and action. (I have a compound fracture of my leg and a fractured skull with bleeding from my ear, and the ambulance has taken me to the Emergency Room. But I’m not looking to do emergency so fast.)
As the prison bus pulls up to the facility…
“Not so fast…!!!”
So, it’s a national emergency but we now are going to wait? By definition, if we can afford to wait, it’s not an emergency.
Well I kind of think the idea of an invasion or an emergency is blasted all to hell by his naming the Wall Peaches.
Not so fast, et? How long do we have for you to decide it is or isn’t a national emergency? Something tells me someone has your ear about why this might not work. I don’t think that corner you’re getting stuck in is actually deep enough for you to keep backing up.
But certainly the whimsical frivolity only underscores his point that he’s not a person who seeks to take personal credit for things. ![]()
If you mean: “The buck stops everywhere” yeah. hahahahahahaha
Apparently, he needs to make all Federal employees suffer some more.
Maximum pain for his sadistic satisfaction.
Breaking News: "Trump Sh_ts in His Own Mess Kit Again!"
More likely he is hiding under Putin’s desk.
McConnell’s lack of action is interesting … I wish the pundits would emphasize how he could make this go away in 5 minutes. So Mitch has determined that the deplorables are more important than his members’ constituents? I guess so … my money is still on the national emergency next week or so.
Somebody, some way, some how needs to put the screws to McConnell. This evil creep needs to be put in the spotlight big time.
It annoys the hell out of me that these Senators and tRump are getting paid while other Fed. employees are being told to eat cake.
I think he’ll be history by the end of July. Hopefully, Mueller’s investigation will open it all up and then the repugs will have to have time to float someone else for 2020.
Mixed feelings. There’s a part of me that just wants him to declare it and reopen the damn government already. But of course it would set a TERRIBLE precedent, and while the courts would probably put a stop to it, I wouldn’t take that for granted.
and, the Lump floated out to sea would be good for me.
