He's a liar and a con man. This is his last hill to die on, so to speak. The man calls for an emergency and then says it wasn't really an emergency. How will this hold up in court?

Not very well if the lawyers on that case are remotely qualified.
How many times do I have to post a link (and I'm sure you've already read it) denoting how Trump is going to make Mexico pay for the wall before this gets repeated ad nauseum?

Was congress trying to rob us when they passed the actual wall bill and it was soley to be the taxpayer to fund it? Where was you and yours outrage back then?

Where and when did Trump withdraw his statement that this is no longer an emergency?

I'll jump back into this discussion when you come back to reality.

What open border Democrats? Name the Democrats that are in favor of open borders. Heck, I'll make it even easier for you. Name ONE PERSON who says they are in favor of open borders. And did you notice you're now referring to Trump's own party his opposition? Does that not concern you at all? If both Democrats and Republicans disapprove of him, he's doing something wrong.

What part of him saying he didn't have to declare an emergency but he wanted to go ahead and do it doesn't make it clear that this is NOT an actual emergency?

If your house is on fire, do you say "I didn't have to call the fire department, but I figured I'd go ahead and get this fire put out?"

Nope. You call the fire department because a house on fire is an actual emergency.

Nothing that takes 20 plus years to get built is a fix for an EMERGENCY.

It's political grandstanding.

And, I don't trust his "plan" to make Mexico pay for this AFTER he takes our money to do it.

Do you recall him saying he had a plan on DAY ONE to fix Obamacare? I do. Where's that? I mean, he already had it... he SAID SO.

Trust him at your own peril. He's a liar.

I get so sick of this open border crap.

Nobody wants to have zero national security along borders.

Why does it have to be black and white? Why can we not secure our borders without building a wall that is easily defeated via tunnel, ladder, plane, or boat?

Its quite simple really.
Cameras, drones and sensors don't stop anyone at the border. They don't funnel anyone into ports of entry.

The president is right on the issue and is doing everything in his power to address it. I love and respect that. We’ll see how it shakes out in the courts, one thing is for certain, he’s not going to give up.
