An election won fair and square, Russia and Comey, just sat on the sidelines. This was not a fair and square it was a fiasco, illegal, tampered with election. JMO

Win or lose, it will go straight to SCOTUS and be ruled on within two weeks.

Its not going to happen anyway.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martial_law
Typically, the imposition of martial law accompanies curfews; the suspension of civil law, civil rights, and habeas corpus; and the application or extension of military law or military justice to civilians. Civilians defying martial law may be subjected to military tribunal (court-martial).
This is exactly what the Neo-Fuhrer wants.

Oh, I can certainly see him going far enough as to declare an "Emergency", also he might shut down the border, and come up with his own money from somewhere for a "wall".

What I do NOT see, is that he'd also declare Martial Law in this speech. It's too far over the top at this point, and even Pres. Trump can't fail to see that.

The court will refuse to step in with a state of emergency. Unlike Trump they understand the separations of power.

No, you misunderstood. Trump won fair and square. I was careful, however, not to say it was a fair election, because it wasn't.

Your side has used immigration policy to import tens of millions of voters to cancel out the votes of native Americans and for decades has used the mainstream media to warp voters' morals as well as their understanding of the world around them. Your side is guilty of permanent and profound election interference, and nothing could be sillier than talking about Russian election interference in 2016.

State of the Union = Broken government.
Congress cannot even secure endowed (sacred) rights (prosecute trespass; adjudicate disputes; defend against enemies, foreign or domestic).


Trump is going to take that power from Congress. 3pm tomorrow.
3.....2...….1...….Liberal Heads explode again.

However, I don't see why he would say it was an announcement regarding the boarder if that was what he was going to do.

Makes no sense to announce that prior to 30 days unless he's 100% sure Mitch will back him.

Illegal immigration has been falling for over a decade now:

"A Pew Research Center analysis of U.S. government data from 2016 has found that the U.S. illegal immigrant population has fallen to its lowest level in a decade. In 2007, the number of unauthorized immigrants living in the U.S. peaked at an estimated 12.2 million and by 2016, that fell to 10.7 million. The decline can be attributed to a sharp decrease in the number of Mexicans entering the U.S. without authorization."

But your fearless leader has convinced you it is suddenly A NATIONAL EMERGENCY!!!!

LOL. Talk about being bamboozled.
