37 trillion and growing is indeed a national emergency. Combine that with the BRICS world working as quickly as they can to divest from the dollar. It’s the pinnacle of stupidity not to think our economic situation it’s not a national emergency at this point.

Nope. A chronic situation doesn’t become an emergency just because we agree action should be taken. If that were the case, our national debt would qualify as one, and the Executive could sweep aside the Congress and impose a balanced budget.

That’s not how a republic works.

The debt was $28 trillion in President Trump’s first term yet apparently that wasn’t an emergency.

37 Trill is an existential risk constituting a clear emergency.

I know. What kind of ignorant jackasses don’t see that as an emergency.

For one, I no longer give a damn what these feeble pieces of crap think. They have shown they only care about the Constitution when it is their ox getting gored.

So their opinions are meaningless. And we have plenty of them on this forum.

I think trump’s going to have to write down what he wants and send it to congress. Get it done. Let’s go around the judges. We have the congress so no excuses.
