Author didn’t explain the idea. Just quoted the law/procedure. Made to think it’s easy.
The usurper ‘Resident figured out how to come up with $150B, and hand over to an arch enemy. We cried bloody murder for good reason, yet it still went thru.
By analogy, if 10% of that money is drummed up by a real President, we can expect the left to go bonkers, yet it can and must still go thru.
In 2006 then President Bush signed a bill providing $50 Billion for a border wall. President Trump can use that!
I think that is Trump’s game plan knowing Dems will never approve a dime for the wall and that this 3 week committee has no way in heck of reaching an agreement. The shutdown was
politically not working to get the wall money. So when Dems refuse to reach an agreement, underscore they want open borders, declare a national emergency and try to get DOD to build it. Dems will forum shop for a 9th circuit liberal hack judge to get an injunction, and it will be appealed to the Supreme Court where Trump is hoping conservative majority will let him proceed.
Law doesn’t matter here. ANYTHING Trump does to fund the wall will begin the impeach ment screaming. Just do it.
I have lost track of how many articles I’ve read about President Trump being able to pay for the wall just by doing this or that....honestly, if the poor battered president could do it, I have no doubt in my mind that the wall would be well underway. How can all these people know so much more than the president?
Thanks for this informative article. It’s so much better than the barf alerts, celebrity opinions, and other leftist propaganda that makes its way on to FR.
Trump has said he’s going to build the wall one way or another, and this would be another option.
As Sarah Sanders has said, it’s just a matter of whether the Democrats want to get something in return.
