Who waits over 2 years to call a national emergency?

    Think of it like this, it took our government decades addressing this emergency and doing nothing, it only took a nonpolitician 2 years to call it what it is and actually do something despite the obstruction.

    It's a national emergency because of the accumulation of the damage that illegal immigration has done. Dems aren't deep thinkers.

    Trump doesn't even work a quarter of a full work day. So taking that into account, for Trump, it may only seem like 3 or 4 months have gone by.

    And that's not even counting the days when it's raining and he refuses to do any work at all. lol.

    A moron using it as a cudgel to beat his opposition into compliance of course. Trump won't declare an emergency, but he will hang the threat of it over their heads until they do as he wants. It's a perfect strategy: "do as I say and call it compromise or maybe I will declare an emergency and get what I want anyway."

    We’ve never had government obstruction and ignoring federal law before, like we have now from the liberals. Guess he thought common sense would set in sooner or later.

    I do get a kick out of Trump mulling over whether or not to call an emergency to bypass Congress, and dragging this decision out over months. There either IS an emergency, or there is not. You don't say "You know what, in 6 months time, I'll declare an emergency for this".

    That's not how it works at all.
