Only this time, they face a bona fide emergency on the border, and they’re struggling to make the case there’s truly a problem.

Record numbers of migrant families are streaming into the United States, overwhelming border agents and leaving holding cells dangerously overcrowded with children, many of whom are falling sick. Originally Posted by dilbert firestorm

If Trump declares a crisis at the border, and uses other funds to build it, what will stop some democrat or republican president in the future declaring guns are a national crisis, and we have to give them up. The shit will hit the fan then.

If Trump does ise it, the next President may use it on Global Warming.

It is not the proper use of the act. Congress should in tje future curtail the power of this act.

I have a Question, How can anybody defend what's going on with Border security.
> The Dems Nancy&chucky get paid very well to come to the table and compromise in DC ( Not Vacation when fed shut down )
>The Dems agreed to 130 miles and border security under Obama with out a PEEP ,
> Dumper has offered compromises DACA<TDS and all the other side Leaders can say is NO ( like when my kids were 2 )
So the question is how can anyone defend this type of behavior ?

Contrary to the questioner's belief that if Trump declared a national emergency to build a wall [which is, btw, quite on topic], that action in no manner gives a subsequent president the right to usurp the civil rights of American citizens since the U.S. Bill of Rights conspicuously protects the American citizen and prevents any president from usurping the civil rights of American citizens ... as the questioner proposed.
