All Things Trump: Is it over yet?

Would not be surprised.

A toxic crisis in America’s coal country

In the shadow of some of America's most controversial coal mines, where companies use huge amounts of explosives to blow the tops off mountains, isolated communities say their water has been poisoned.

Now, they must decide if they will fight back against an industry they have relied upon for generations.

What a mess. Trump country what do you expect?

A fucking witless dumb-ass.

So the answer to the question, "What's the emergency?" is, "None."

Yet another dummy spit, on a grand scale...

So the headline at the top of the front page in my local newspaper this morning was: "TRUMP DECLARES EMERGENCY AT BORDER."

Underneath were two stories, the AP one about the announcement, the other from a local reporter headlined "Impact of President's decision on Colorado military projects unclear."

And there's the risk for Trump. The average Trumpkin won't care where the money comes from unless they lose a job, but you mess with a Congressman's pork, you better be careful. That's right, Trump's got to pull money away from military funding for his wall.

And the Democratic spin just writes itself.

It's a simple question - what's the emergency?

The clown with a comb-over.

Yeah getting him into jail or a psychiatric hospital is urgent, he seems to be convinced he's the POTUS, obviously the sign of a grievous schizophrenic fit.

Some fucking birds will derail Trump, because he forgot to pull out of the migratory bird treaty.
Politico:
In a 19-page complaint, the organization contends Trump declared an emergency because lawmakers didn’t meet his request of $5.7 billion for a border wall. A spending bill passed Thursday devoted only a quarter of that amount to border barriers.

“A disagreement between the president and Congress about how to spend money does not constitute an emergency authorizing unilateral executive action,” the group argued.

Public Citizen brought the suit on behalf of the Frontera Audubon Society, a 15-acre nature preserve in the Rio Grande Valley, and three landowners in South Texas who were informed the government will build a wall on their properties if funds become available.

The plaintiffs called on the federal court to invalidate the declaration and halt any related border wall construction.

The Center for Biological Diversity, an environmental group headquartered in Tucson, Ariz., said Friday that it will also take legal action against the emergency declaration, possibly as soon as this weekend.

Laiken Jordahl, the center’s borderlands campaigner, said in a related announcement that the emergency would “[destroy] wildlife and communities along the border and [assault] democracy in the process.”

The state of California — which has clashed with Trump over his immigration crackdown — also is threatening to sue the administration. Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, called Trump’s emergency declaration “a national disgrace” in a tweet Friday.

“Our message to the White House is simple,” he wrote. “CA will see you in court.”

It's so transparent that it is being over-dramatized.

How many did Obama declare? Does it matter? OR is it more boring stuff being pitched like a reality show?

Whattaboutism

Not exactly. I'm just pointing out that it isn't rare, special or even likely significant. It's not 'whatabout Obama', it's 'whatabout ALLtheotherpresidents'.

Declaring national emergencies is as rare in presidents as wearing suits.

But you go ahead and panic. The media told you it was important.

My post was about him shooting himself in the foot by stating outright that his declaration was unnecessary--there was no outrage expressed. Your lack of honesty is part of what makes you nothing but an ankle biter.

It IS unnecessary. But every president still does it.

You keep being upset about Trump though...when HE does it, it must itch.

So the answer to the question, "What's the emergency?" is, "None."

It's as much an emergency as the MANY enacted by all previous presidents.

The only impressive part is how you all pretend THIS emergency is ONE TOO MANY!!!

Hopefully they stop this piece of shit dead.
