4. I don't think that is the point. Limits do not need to be set.

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.
