If it's okay for a President to declare a national emergency over a wall. Can the next Dem call a national emergency over guns?

assuming 45 is and the senate are stupid enough to set that precedent, then yes...that will open the door for future presidents to end-around congressional oversight for whatever their pet projects are too.

No, it is not OK for Trump to declare a national emergency over the wall..This is not even close to Bush's declaration after 9/11.. It's a power grab & it will probably back-fire on him & maybe create similar trivial national emergencies in the future..It likely won't get by the Supreme Court.. But if it does: Guns... Depending on what Dems come up, is not going to get by the Supreme Court & the 2nd amendment..But, stupid climate change emergencies just might.. Or maybe some future health care emergency. Mandatory vaccinations comes to mind...Maybe some form of free speech considered dangerous or mentally ill.. It's a slippery slope that Trump is taking us down.

If there is another school shooting, I don’t see why a president couldn’t declare a national emergency

Democrats are infatuated with Donald. They are open mouth amazed and yet they forgot that h as of this country demands legal immigration at this point.Illeagals get free medical and dental. We dont. We have to follow every dang law. They dont. They waltz in here and own the joint. I asked the police to arrest a drug meth dealer, and they point blank said even if hes an illeagal we have to see him deal first. He laughs at our system. Besides which he said he would get CS work permit and just cross border here again.

This is akin to the downfall of the Roman republic, when the conservatives under Cato and Cicero violated the Constitution in an effort to force Caesar into a corner. They changed the rules and started a civil war that ended with their deaths.
Changing the rules means no rules at all. That way lies Fascism.
