Maybe I took an extra stupid pill today but I don’t get that answer as to my question as to why Trump didn’t sign the first bill 2 weeks ago (and declare the emergency then also) so we didn’t end up with this mess.

Was it actually his goal to get the crap that was in this bill? He had to know what was coming 2 weeks ago when he shut down the government .

FR has this weird tendency sometimes to miss the forest for the trees. While everyone here is upset about the bill, the rest of the country, especially the proglibs, could hardly give a sh!t.

No, you know what they're freaking out about? That's right, let's put this in the proper context. The declaration may well very be the biggest thing - outside of the attempted coup - to occur during Trump's first administration. Actually, it's the first real offensive step of any substance he's taken since being sworn in. The declaration is going to dominate the news now until it is resolved either in Congress or SCOTUS - could take months.

No one cares about the small print in the bill. Laws are extremely easy to circumvent, challenge or fail to enforce. The nature of the wording was a cop out to allow the proggies to save some face. Consider accompanied children - they can only be processed if caught in the USA. The wall is intended to foreclose that action by blocking their path in the first place.

Anyway, I expect people will eventually come up for air and realize what the rest of the country is screaming about. The declaration is a really big deal, one that we should be congratulating Trump for literally crossing the Rubicon.

He has managed to restructure the playing field and place the scrutiny onto the obstructionists and traitors.
