Donald Trump said on Friday that he does not plan to declare a national emergency a day after suggesting he would probably do so.
Speaking at a cabinet meeting over the government shutdown and the border wall, Trump said: What were not looking to do right now is national emergency.
The president instead urged Democrats to come back and vote in Congress in a bid to end the government shutdown.
Trump insisted he had the right to declare an emergency, but said: Im not going to do it so fast, according to a White House pool reporter.

National Emergency NOW.
EA76 NOW. Remove Mueller and place him back in the Marines at his 0-2 status NOW.
Send 1st Lt. Mueller to El Paso, under direct CIC order, to enforce a squad of Marines building The Wall!
Trump needs to go full Bolsonaro.
Yeah and one of them was Jeff freaking Merkeley. I thought I’d see pigs fly before I’d see him take a moderate instead of hard left opinion.
“The problem is that if he sets the precedent by declaring a national emergency to carry out a project...some future Dem president, say, Occasional Cortex, could do the same thing for something like Green Climate Control or whatever her wacky project is.”
Eighty percent of Americans support the wall, while 8% of Americans support the global warming scam. If a future president does the global warming scam, he’ll likely be thrown out of Washington with threats of hanging.
Trump’s speech typically lacks precision. This is not new. I know what he means.
I hope Trump doesn’t compromise on much to get the 5 billion for the wall. The wall is important, but it won’t end all our problems if we allow it to be bypassed with stupid legal immigration law. It’s debatable what’s worth compromising on, but I don’t think we should even consider compromise without funding for the entire border wall first.
Let the military train and patrol the same way they do elsewhere already with no connection to the BP. If they need the BP they know how to contact them.
JMHo
Yeah they are going to build a wall with the remittance from the illegal mescans that are already in the US.
Embedding BP is not controversial at all. In fact the Navy does it all the time. When doing drug interdiction on the open sea the Navy embeds Coast Guard Officers( in peace time they don't work for the DOD ) on Navy ships. Naval Officers cannot arrest anyone in international waters because it is considered an act of war but Coast Guard officers can arrest. So they assign one CG officer per ship when doing those ops. So yada yada yada you have it all wrong.
Secure the gdamn border NOW, PDJT.
Yep will not be long before it all folds like a cheap suit.
Same ol shit, different herd.
The president can not make any law, including another new law to correct our stupid existing law of chain migration. Only constitutional power president has is to veto any law passed by congress. So only the congress can pass new laws to correct bad existing laws. And congress can override a veto with 2/3rd majority.
President Trump is fighting to not only curb illegals, he also is pushing to abolish chain migration in favor of merit based immigrants.
At the end of the day nothing much can change until voters elect congress critters whose first priority will be to protect citizens first.
But like he said the other night. While they are fiddle dikin around in the courts, he has funded the wall and is BUILDING IT. What happened to all of that BS?
The investigation has put the hooks into him in the last day or so, IMHO.
So your theory vs. mine. Wow.
Gotcha, whatever you say, feel better now?
The US military has been embedding law enforcement (DEA,CG etc) into operational units for 100 hundred years. IT'S NOT A THEORY. I've explained the situation to you, I've actually been a part of this type of op, so quit spreading false information.

Add people and have them mix in the existing people rather than having more numerous teams covering more area.
Yeah, I see your point, why achieve more with more people when you can achieve the same thing with more people.
False information?
Dang, you're really desperate
A platoon is around 30+ men. Usually divided into 3 squads. So a BP agent gets assigned to each squad. So now 3 BP agents multiples into 35 + men on patrol who can now cover a much larger area. See how easy that was. Did it hurt?
“..Democrats strangle them selves...”
Such nice imagery... :^)
Troll
you may be satisfied with lip service, not all of us are. What good is scoring some cheap political points with a two week expiration date——— if you’ve given away the country to gain them. Fool.
