Lol, has Trump realized that if he takes money from the Defense budget, which he would have to do to use the national emergency policy, then hed be taking money away from our soldiers.
And I suspect that the courts are going to make quick work of this plan.

Not sure how. Its the defense of the border. Caravans of 15K are marching toward the border monthly. We have had an illegal alien issue for half a century which is getting worse. He's already been forced to send troops to border. And frankly--he's doing something that most of the Democrats voting against the measure have already either agreed to do or have said needed to be done. What---70% of the nation agrees that we have a serious issue on the border than that we need a wall.
I mean, the Dems will venue shop to make sure they win the initial round in court---but Trump has basically loaded the SC so that liberal non-sense wont fly once it hits the Supreme Court. I think its probably time for the Democrats to end the Schumer Shutdown and vote to fund the wall. Its all politics on their side. Nobody with common sense thinks it makes sense to shut down the government to prevent a wall from being built. Chuck and Nancy are losing the common sense argument with the common people, but what else is new....

I doubt any court will agree with the idea that potential asylum seekers and economic migrants are a threat to national security...

I doubt courts will agree that the stream of those seeking entry consists entirely of legitimate asylum seekers and economic migrants.
