National Emergy?

I'm sitting here reading an AP story on our linguistically challenged president's recent tweetstorm about the migrants. Said he, at least according to the article, "I have alerted Border Patrol and Military that this is a National Emergy. Must change laws!"

Emergy. He didn't really fucking say that, did he?
