#1 Naa.
Make them do their jobs in Congress by LAW. Many voted for this already so you have them by the scruff of the neck.

If you start declaring "National Emergencies" - well... you know. To democrats, everything is always a "national emergency" because they are ALWAYS on the ragahemaxetogrind.

So bathrooms, green new deals, ... you get the drift.

Very bad president in law to start over something that is blatantly already LAW.

#2 Trump does seem to have the authority to declare an emergency and secure the border. (Emergencies Act and Fence Act).

Congress does need to do its job. Hopefully, they will find to backbone to do this.

There needs to be a top-to-bottom reform of immigration laws and the means of enforcement. Sanctuary cities and states needs to stop. DACA/DAPA needs to go. Overstayed visas need to go. Illegal immigration needs to go.

The Dems are being exposed as asshats the longer this goes on.

Trump needs to stay strong despite some Pubs going wobbly. In the past the Dems have lied repeatedly about the immigration issue.

#3 The Dems are being exposed as residents not Americans. They have no loyalty to the national concept of American, they're globalist/communists.

#4 They are useful idiots for the globalist rent-seekers.

Their politics is oikophobic socialism.

Going from National to Oikophobia is Akin to the way the left used to love Eugenics then decided it was bad and so decided on dysgenic fertility redistribution. The narcissism behind coercion of others attracts them.

#7 They passed some previous wall funding under a previous admin. I'd like to hear what happened with that money. If it was spent to create the bits of wall we have fine, but if it wasn't used for a wall I'd like to see where it went and why.

#8 @rjschwarz
That might be worth doing a bit of actual journalism on.

#9 #7-8. I thought $20 B was allocated/approved in 2006 but onlu a little over a billion was actually spent.

Si I guess they couldn't find $19 B for the 'worthy cause'.

#10 And why didn't the pubs pass this while they controlled Congress?

Cause the Trunks invited the liberals who fled the old Democratic party into their ranks. Now its not a conservative party, but the last vestiges of the old center. As the socialists have shown in Mexifornia, there can be only one.
