SATIRE: Democrats say the president should use his emergency powers to mandate that everyone must wear a mask in public to improve our health and our economy.

Democrats say the president should use his emergency powers to mandate that everyone must wear a mask in public to improve our health and our economy.

Ok, if we're now using emergency powers to negate the constitution and separation of powers, there are lots of things the president can do improve our health and our economy.

For example:

He can declare a total tax holiday for the next six months (hmmm... make it retractive to the first of the year), including all federal, state and local income taxes, payroll taxes, real estate taxes, sales taxes, excise taxes, fuel taxes, telephone taxes, utility taxes, etc, etc, etc.

This will greatly improve our economy and the health of all citizens.

Immediately suspend all federal disbursements or subsidies to political groups, organizations, associations, etc, including Planned Parenthood, etc.

Declare abortion illegal (unhealthy for the baby).

Now that the president doesn't have to abide by the constitution or separation of powers and can even override state law (due to the national emergency) I'll bet there's a long list of things he could mandate to improve public health and our economy.

If we’re inventing emergency powers the President can use in the name of health and the economy, throwing Communists out of helicopters is the best one.

Deputize the citizens to remove illegal aliens.

That would do more for our health and economy than anything.

I sincerely wish this would happen.

I love the ‘declare abortion illegal, unhealthy for the baby’ one.

My addition to the list: Declare BLM a terrorist organization

Democrats and their governors want Trump to rule over them, to then shift the blame and responsibility to Trump, following the often failed policies of many Dim governors.

I am holding up my hand and wiggling four fingers.

And those represent four of these-the middle finger.

Everytime Jim Acosta asks Trump a question, Trump should drag out a mask, put it on, and then berate the idiot.
