..Proof for all to see and know. Even the Republicans know. Have any relatives or friends who think Trump is OK, a fine person and good President of the USA?. Give that person those 10 words above. This is not a hurricane, this is not some awful fire, this isn't an awful earthquake. This is a mean trick to get money for a questionable project. That is all. Tell the doubters/and those that believe in Trump, that this is wrong. A competent sane person doesn't do that. Most of the "doubters" will agree with you. "Yes. This is wrong." Most of us know it is wrong to declare an EMERGENCY, when there is no EMERGENCY.. You don't need to explain a whole lot, because this explains itself. This is not an earthquake, not a hurricane, not some awful fire, not 30 below across the entire country. Not the country going broke. Not terrible disease across all the states like a "killer flu"..
.........................This is a mean trick to get money for a questionable project....
MOST OF THE COUNTRY KNOWS......Perhaps those additional twelve words will help. The words "mean trick" are powerful words. They convey a very powerful message.
Thank You for reading this.

Why? Because he is incompetent and needs to be removed. I need proof your friend says..Ok. Give your friend the information in the Original Post. Repeat it over and over and over..That is not a lie, that is the truth. Eventually, he/she will agree. It is NOT an Emergency. It is a mean trick to get money for a questionable project. That's it.

(38,421 posts)Trump doesn't have the right to declare an "Emergency" when there is none. In fact, courts have proved this correct. If a person yells, "FIRE!" in a crowded arena full of people, and there is NO FIRE, and the jerk is arrested, and tried and convicted. And the jerk did it to get attention, and he knew there was no fire, then the jerk is going to be sued by those who were hurt in the rush to get out of the arena. And the law suits will be successful. The jerk will also get some good jail time because of so many injuries and deaths due to his mouth
..Trump has made a terrible mistake lying about an EMERGENCY. There is no emergency to build his wall. He knows that, and we all know that. It will take some time. But this is one terrible lie. It could knock Humpty Trumpdy off of the wall. We will see.
