I think any lawsuit needs to be expanded to include all declared national emergencies, don’t let it be specially for the wall.
Tar.
Feathers.
It would be yet another clear signal that elections no longer work.
” Vanity-What’s happens if the Supreme Court (John Roberts) denies Trumps National Emergency?”
They will hand over executive power to Congress. Doomsday
Just modify obama’s DACA EO to build it.
Then President Trump immediately reverses and abolishes ALL OTHER National Emergencies instituted under this Law by past Presidents.
I have little faith in Roberts, too. Seems non-Constitutionalists have a different sense of jurisprudence. Instead of looking at a given action and the underlying law, they start with a desired outcome, then find a way to get there, often with outrageous twists to achieve the objective.
I admire President Trump’s determination and fight more every time I see him speak. If the wall doesn’t happen, it’s because of the fierce opposition from nearly all sides.
I’m sticking with him - he has already won my 2020 vote by being the rare Republican who doesn’t try to make nice with the enemy.
Rather simple answer. Start arresting Deep State Criminals. All the RATS will scurry. Letting them go unfettered for over two years tells them that Trump isn’t serious.
This should be in the 5th Circuit not the 9th...
He will most likely rule that the National Emergency is not an emergency so too bad Donald. Kind of like the Affordable Care Act was not a tax when passed, but a tax when challenged!
According to Andrew Wilkow NO ONE, even the SCOTUS can deny Trump. 10USC2808 and 2803 explicitly give the president the power to act without recourse. The only thing SCOTUS can say is the law, as written is unconstitutional and no one has challenged the law since the ‘70s and used by 5 previous presidents. Even if they say that the law stands until revoked by Congress and that ain’t gonna happen.
According to Wilkow, Congress can’t stop the President even with a 2/3’s majority. There is apparently no provision for that type of action.
“JOHN MARSHALL HAS MADE HIS DECISION; NOW LET HIM ENFORCE IT.” -Andrew Jackson
Interesting read (ignore the paragraph regarding Clive Bundy).
Game over.
Because it has become crystal clear that Congress, under no circumstances, will build a wall. Nor will they make any changes in the law that would stem the flow of illegal immigration. And they are sending the message that there is nothing voters can do about it.
If? I figure it is a given that he will. I think leaving this to the courts is a fail. It gives Trump and everyone fodder for elections but does not to fix our problem on the border and with illegal immigration.
All of these leftists saying that Trump is being political and just trying to fulfill a campaign promise are being devious. The illegal immigration problem has been there long before Trump. We’ve been screaming for a wall and an end to the invasion for decades. They are constantly trying to distract from the failure of not enforcing existing laws. This clown show will come to an end when they are literally thrown out of office. Until then just keep eating your peanuts and popcorn.
That why Trump should have not signed bill. He should just declared the emergency and that way if Roberts can’t find his balls on decision day, Trump could say SCOTUS/Roberts just perpetuated the government shutdown.
Americans need to take a serious look at our “justice system”. They should not have the power they’ve stolen and SHOULD NOT BE the final word on EVERYTHING that goes on in the United States. The Founding Fathers and the Constitution never intended them to be the freaky little gods they’ve become.
It means the deep state has won the cold civil war. I would be interested in seeing what happens in a hot one.

The writing is on the wall. We’re moving towards a civil war.
Prepare accordingly.
