Trump stinks.
Great God Almighty.
Trump stinks.
Was this one Pear induced?
Gotta keep the public happy😊
Undoubtedly. Pears, prunes, bran, whatever — we all know what fiber does to a person . . .
In case you were wondering why a Sadministration with absolutely no foreign policy concern (other than personally raking in golden-toilet money from kleptocrats and oligarchs) has all of the sudden seemed to discover a new country called “Venezuela” on it’s 2019 world map: . . .

An informative read.
Thanks, for the link, Dio. Interesting read.
Trump will avoid a shutdown and bring on a constitutional crisis.
Trump to sign border deal averting shutdown, declare emergency in pursuit of wall funding, McConnell says
Article I, Section 9:
No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law
So he will either lose or win in court.
If Trump loses in court, he'll need to come up with another scheme to pay for his wall.
If Trump wins in court, that vastly increases the power of the presidency so that President Kamala Harris can declare a climate change emergency and take appropriate measures. Or President Elizabeth Warren could declare a health care emergency and decree Medicare-For-All. The possibilities are endless.
Assuming Ginsberg stays healthy and on the court, this will be a five-to-four Supreme Court decision with John Roberts in the hot seat.
Haha . . .
. . . I’ll bet that’s what President Gore was thinking, too?!?
Not necessarily. He can lose in Congress. The National Emergency Act allows Congress to weigh in on the emergency declaration, which Pelosi almost certainly will. The Act also requires one house to take up the resolution if it's passed by the other, and in a reasonably short amount of time. Turtle Mitch will have to bring up a vote either on the resolution or to decline to hear it.
Sorry, not remembering where articles on this are at the moment.
But assuming it passes in the Senate given the GOP majority, Trump can veto. Overriding his veto would be problematic. So the courts will likely be the best venue to stop this Trumpvesty.
