For all the legal analysts wringing their hands at the prospect of such a move, the courts would likely uphold it.
It seems increasingly likely that President Trump will declare a national emergency at our southern border in order to access funds to build a wall. Last week, I had the pleasure of debating National Review

Yeah? Well, the law was on Trump’s side to limit or halt immigration from select countries, too, until a judge from Hawaii thought he knew better.
As weve seen having the law on his side means nothing to the Rat Judges who no doubt already have the injunctions written.

Yes, a little 5ft 4 judge in Oregon, CA or Hawaii will stomp down on the emergency. Then Dems will say “See ya’ in court the next 2-3 years, sucker” to Trump.
Delays over “need more time to procure documents for this” “will not be able to appear on that date, may we be granted a postponement?” will go on for years.
Was our faulty system of justice always like this? Or a Dem president gets same day service in a sports car at the drive up justice window and GOP has to wait for the fullness of time to evolve along with the glaciers moving?
RE: until a judge from Hawaii thought he knew better.
Ignore the lower courts, a lot are made up of judges who think they can act as the executive for this country.
The final battle will be at the Supreme Court and we’ll have to worry about ONE MAN — John Roberts.
The law will support Trump simply because the President has tried every possibility to secure the nation on the border, except building a physical barrier - a wall. The Courts will allow him to take the last step - an emergency declaration.

Yes.
And sadly after all our years of waiting for this to be decided Roberts may vote liberal again.
President Michelle or Oprah or Booker won’t build the Wall anyway by then.
Once RBG is replaced and Roberts is no longer the swing vote, I predict he will start voting more conservatively. The blackmail threats will no longer be effective once he is not the deciding vote. So all of these "close" cases will turn into a steady stream of 6-3 victories for the Constitutionalist side - exactly that the Left is terrified of.
But this should be on every FB wall/page.
WE ARE THE MEDIA THAT COUNTS TO AMERICA !
Be used.
Securing the border is definitely in the Presidents wheel house. I think it is job 1.
Trump’s legal case will be stronger if he focuses wall construction on areas where the threat of invasion is the strongest.
>>I believe that the Roberts Court ............ would grant the same generous deference to President Trump.<<
Right! And Mohammedans are good, peaceful people. Roberts is Lucy and we are Charlie Brown. Roberts is STILL being blackmailed by the half-breed.

Hell, I’m there for 30 days for the same thing in 2017....and just now they levied the FB jail sentence...What penis slurpers..
The Constitution gives the President plenary authority over national security and actually compels him to protect the states from invasion. He doesn’t need permission from the courts or a law from congress.

And how long did it take for the Supreme Court to finally uphold Trump's third attempt at a watered-down immigration ban?
Every good activist goes to jail, gets out, and keeps on keepin' on.
I won't delete FB for the same reason I stay in the US in spite of being married to a dual citizen Filipina.
I have better advantages as a spouse in the Philippines with a dual citizen spouse ... I can own 40% of a business (she, of course the main stake holder with 60% ) and can live quite comfortably (in the Province) on SS alone.
Houses, f'rinstance are not insulated because it is always hot and skilled craftsmen work for about $4.00 a day.
Such a declaration probably would be upheld. So let’s stop wasting time, make the declaration, and get started. Congress isn’t going to act.
“And how long did it take for the Supreme Court to finally uphold Trump’s third attempt at a watered-down immigration ban? “
Exactly. Because John Roberts refused to slap down these unconstitutional edicts from the lower courts.
Trump’s legal advisors have done irreparable damage to the office of the presidency by advising him to kowtow to the courts. It’s insanity.
