13. This. The biggest issue with a govt shutdown is the president can legitamatly declare a non wartime national emergency

And that can go on for a long time. During that time the courts are virtually powerless besides the fact it opens a gauntlet of emergency powers acts he could invoke. I think the fact that how quick he invoked, illegally, the Aliens Enemy Act shows how itchy of a trigger finger these fucks want a national emergency declared. Beware moving forward, they will try and do it for someone crossing the street backwards. Once he declares, legitimately, a full blown national emergency the Constitution is in ashes.
