Trump will sign spending bill and declare a national emergency, Mitch McConnell says
- Thread starter Blimey
- Start date
I am not a huge fan of these National Emergency's. Some of the ones passed over the course of the past 40years ago or so, IMO, have been good for the Country. Some, not so good.
This is not in violation of the Constitution, it is not in violation of the rules of our Country. This is much smaller than many in the past. I do not believe that Trump's decision is going to make this policy worse for future times. Many are saying that we should not go down this rabbit hole? Read history. This is not a new thing, since the 1970's, dozens of these orders have been signed; hell, we are living under 31 of them right now.

how many people close to the border voted for trump after he said lets build the wall? We can look for election but I would say a large %.
So when people go crazy about the BR-Exit, Trump being elected, France revolts, etc... tell them. You see what happens when
people do not listen to the problems their fellow neighbors have?
All that we have to do is to walk in someones shoes, listen a bit more, try to understand, but no, instead we join the tribes and polarize.
That is how we ended up all broken apart.
And the politicians and establishment are no fools. They see the tribalism and the opportunities and they feast on the ignorance
of the average folks. The more ignorant those voters are, the better.
And I am not talking about academic ignorance but a more deeper and profound type of ignorance that yields a type of person
that is not very civilized, is short-sighted and is unable to formulate his/her own opinions on issues that otherwise are going
to be very important for the future.
Modern constituents are managed with marketing campaigns that are designed to prostitute their votes in exchange for promises that can never
be fulfilled but look good on TV and facebook.
It all sounds great, it is just all a big fabrication that is totally unrealistic and unsustainable.
Career politicians have only one goal, more popularity that means more money and more power.
So the cycle continues.
The average Joe and middle working class need another wall to insulate them from this system of lies, high taxes, uncontrolled spending, corruption
and lack of accountability.
Maybe Trump himself is our actual wall?

Well said. This is not as dramatic as some are making it out to seem. This is SOP for our government, and it is not in violation of the Constitution like some of the laws that these crooked politicians pass.
Trump making this move will help secure his re-election in 2020. If he lost out on the wall I fear we would end up having a Democrat running this country in 2020. This will keep his base energized while keepng and gaining support in 2020.
LOL. Don't sugar coat it. Tell us what you really feel.
Baseball: Should the bill pass, some minor-league ballplayers could see a raise this year — but only barely. The Save America’s Pastime Act exempts pro baseball players from federal labor laws and has been a major lobbying priority for Major League Baseball ever since minor-league players began suing the league in recent years for paying them illegally low wages. The version in the bill exempts only players working under a contract that pays minimum wage, but there are major loopholes: The contract has to pay minimum wage for a only 40-hour workweek during the season, not spring training or the offseason — and it includes no guarantee of overtime even though baseball prospects routinely work long hours. Thus, under the bill, a player is guaranteed a minimum salary of $1,160 a month. The current minor-league minimum is $1,100 a month.
WTF is this? This is one reason this bill is shit!!!
Guns: The bill includes the Fix NICS Act, bipartisan legislation aimed at improving the National Instant Criminal Background Check System that is used to screen U.S. gun buyers. It provides for incentives and penalties to encourage federal agencies and states to send records to the federal database in an effort to prevent the type of oversight that preceded last year’s church massacre in Sutherland Springs, Tex. Democrats pushed for more aggressive gun laws, including universal background checks, but won only a minor concession: Language in the report accompanying the bill clarifying that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention can, in fact, conduct research into gun violence. A long-standing rider known as the Dickey Amendment, which states that no CDC funds “may be used to advocate or promote gun control,” has been interpreted in the past to bar such research. The amendment itself remains
One more reason for it being shit!!!
Actually, I was being deliberately understated.
That must be why I always feel like I've just had a colonoscopy with a 2" cement bit, without the option.

SCOTUS already steps out of its intended role and plays politics rather than reading the constitution in its most permissive sense. So it’s not like other branches of gov don’t circumvent the intent of the branch.
