Why the f**k didn't he declare a state of emergency tonight? That would have freed up a good

[still_one]

amount of money for this

Just insane

1. Cause Jared hasn't figured out how to make a buck from it yuet

2. K&R, his breathing was strained too much to declare anything. Sounded like he was going to fall over

[SKKY]

3. He wants to take credit. Declaring a SOE, most stuff happens...

...automatically. What Trump gives, Trump taketh away.

[Freethinker65]

4. Because he is holding that hostage until Congress gives him his tax cuts

Trump is screwing around with Americans health by delaying funds until Congress gives him the tax cuts he demands.
Does this sound familiar?
The House warned after Trump's Ukraine stunt Trump would pull this shit again and again if there were no repercussions.
The GOP Senate owns this! American deaths will be on their and Trump's hands.

5. He thinks it makes him look bad. He said it was no big deal and it would be over soon.

He cannot admit he was as wrong as it is possible to be wrong.

12. Bingo! nt

6. I thought that calling a state of emergency

Was the prelude to martial law and postponing the election. I'm sure I read that not more than two days ago.

8. No. A state of emergency was declared for Hurricane Katrina. It releases funds

[sarisataka]

10. I am aware of that

Just pointing out there were several recent posts that had a very different take on a state of emergency and what it allows. Not that those had any basis in reality...

7. He already did...

For the border wall.

[Ferrets are Cool]

9. A state of emergency scare me because it will probably give him unprecedented power

not that he doesn't already do anything he wants. But I don't want that power in his stupid hands.
