Punchline:
“The standard line trotted out by the Democrats and the media when the President alludes to an emergency declaration is that a phalanx of pettifoggers will contrive to tie it up in the courts indefinitely. This has even been repeated by conservative pundits. According to Professor Turley, however, Courts generally have deferred to the judgments of presidents on the basis for such national emergencies, and dozens of such declarations have been made without serious judicial review.
‘All of which means that there is no practical way for the Democrats to stop Trump from getting his wall.’
Of course, Trump HAS been tied up by judges who are progressive or simply Democrats who hate him. But it is time for another Jacksonian statement from a president to a judge: “You & what army will stop me?”
