It’s a nice positive thought. But it is important to remember that congressional approval for wall funding is actually two fold. Funding is only one half of it, the other half is also the congressional approval and permission to build it gained at the same time.
I thought a law was passed, about 20 years ago, approving the building of a wall.
The hold up has been funding.
I don't think that is correct. IIRC, the Law exists since 2006 to build the wall. It's all about the funding that originates in the House. The problem for funding is 3 fold:
1. Bush was no big supporter and the House dragged its feet as usual;
2. Hussein soiled the Oval Office and gained a House majority, which of course wouldn't fund it;
3. Republicans took the WH, the House, and the Senate and have done nothing to fund it. I blame them most.
Of course, the incoming socialist House won't fund it.
My solution: Pres. Trump signed that outrageous bill from his own party to procure nearly 1 trillion for re-building our military. I say he divert a fraction of that and send the Army Corps. of Engineers to the border now."
Let some judge issue a Stay of Execution or Injunction and Trump just ignore it. The Judiciary has NO, I say again NO, authority over the Executive Branch when it comes to national security.
IIRC, USSC decided that the Presidency has the authority to allow which countries he deems problematic and not allow their citizens to emigrate to our Nation. The socialists (Liberal if you prefer) screamed about it being anti-muslim. Of course, none of them realized or promoted on their MSM buttboys that he didn't include Indonesia and Malaysia, which have the largest muslim populations on the planet.
