Sundry National Emergency Humor
Donald Trump breaches
separation of powers–
Republicans shrug.
*****
How To Lose A Case:
1. Declare national emergency.
2. Say “I didn’t need to do this,” as your lawyers tear their remaining hair out.
3. Stand by for courts to agree that you, indeed, “didn’t need to do this.”
*****
Unpersuadable,
Impervious to the facts–
That’s Donald Trump’s base.

Today, Lindsey Graham defended Trump’s unconstitutional “national emergency” declaration:
“Let’s just say for a moment that he took some money out of the military construction budget,” Graham said. “I would say it’s better for the middle-school kids in Kentucky to have a secure border. We’ll get them the school they need. But right now we’ve got a national emergency on our hands.
What’s next for Lindsey Graham? Any day now, we just might be hearing this:
“Let’s just say for a moment that the President executed Nancy Pelosi, the person most responsible for blocking his wall.
“Yes, that would be unfortunate. But I would say it’s better for middle-school kids and all Americans to have a secure border. We’ll get them the new House Speaker they need. But right now we’ve got a national emergency on our hands.”

DONALD TRUMP: “We will have a national emergency and we will then be sued and they will sue us in the 9th circuit, even though it shouldn’t be there…”
Hey Donald, if you don’t want cases to go to the 9th Circuit, stop screwing California.
