If his was the plan and if this is what just happened then co!or me impressed. We shall see but he did just tweet about drugs pouring across the border and enemy combatants coming across the border sighting national defense (and on Friday National defense is also what he sighted).

I was wondering if We The People would be able to file a Class Action Suit against the Legislative and Administrative branches. None of them had time to read it before they were forced to vote, so they couldn’t have known what they were voting on. Maybe SCOTUS would decree some kind of “do-over”.

But if Trump has found a better way to fix the mess via 3D chess — even better.

Excellent Find. And in that find is part of the answer. One letter addresses:

Section 7058(d) of division K,

No further discription

The other letter

Section 6

Overseas Contingency Operations/Global War on Terrorism

So he is speaking to specific clauses. Have to search the first one

Thank you

This !ay not be a fix. This may have been the plan. Declaration of a national emergency, constantly saying the wall was needed to stop drugs (directly tied to the national emergency he declared late last year). Pumping 1.5trillion into the DOD and now the letter sent to Congress. Obviously watch for the actions but this could be a long con.

I wish people wouldn’t panic and write him off so quickly every time there’s a bump in the road.

Me too. I think he did what he had to do for the military but I felt he would figure out a way to do what he promised. He is smarter than all the swamp creatures put together. He is not a career professional politician and even though he knows how corrupt they are I think his eyes were opened as to how bad it really is. He was angry about that bill but they ran out the clock on him. I don't think that will happen again.

He is doing all he can to keep his promises but he is being ganged up on. Corrupt politicians are panicking. People forget the good he has accomplished when things don't go their way.

I'm trusting my President.

Payback is going to be fun to watch.

I’m definitely going to keep an eye on this. A jaded, skeptical eye.

So if any federal dollars end up at Planned Parenthood, NEA, NPR, etc., we can blame that on the President and not Congress?

How do you know this wasn’t the plan all along? There really was no wrong vote on the omnibus bill but who knows what will happen in the future.

“Did the president really just roll the Dems?”

So it would appear.

Ain’t life grand?

...the Southern boarder...

Please do not take this as a spelling Nazi attack...

It's border, not boarder.

Though it is kind of like a pun. US is a ship...an illegal boarder (stowaway).

If this is true, he rolled the never trumpers (not just democrats) in congress. They thought they were going to get away with stopping his wall and all other sorts of shenanigans.

all it takes is one... all it takes, if they do try to block him, is focus 200% on one judge and hammer him legally!! remove him from office and throw him in prison! I know I’m dreaming but all it would take is just one display of this and just watch the others back down like typical bullies do when reinforcements show up! maybe... hopefully...

I would not say that, but am sure many will. more power to them.

Certainly the criminals got the pork they wanted. Is it a win for the President/Us? Depends on what the "objective" was?

Clearly for the President, his objective was national security. Life or death. He got his objective. So yeah that's a win.

But we will pay dearly for that. His point, I agree, is that price is cheap compared to the alternative.
