I love brown ppl but I don't want them here if it's in their best interest to hate me so they get free $
ann thinks that the president can just move money around in his capacity as commander in chief so i'm curious why she thinks this is sudh a mistake

just wait until a democrat president declares a national emergency on something that is actually a national emergency
republicans will be losing their shit lying about how much they love the constitution and america
but yeah, when a democrat's in office, let's see what happens after another school is shot up
be more dramatic and repeat more claims from the top comments of a cnn facebook article

ok so i did a little reading on this and it looks the existing national emergencies have been about totally non-controversial things. congress is required to meet every 6 months to consider whether to terminate them, but never has cause they are so irrelevant.
this looks like it would be the first time a national emergency would be declared that people care about.
the reason presidents don't always do this whenever they don't get their way is the whole "we're a nation of laws and not a dictatorship" thing.
if president trump uses a national emergency in this fashion, what exactly stops a democratic president from doing it?
this reminds me of when mitch McConnell told harry reid that democrats would rue the day they abolished the filibuster for certain presidential nominations. mitch was right.

All this getting fuckall done because of fighting in the House & Senate could be averted if America took a brave leap into the unknown by installing a Monarchy.
One person calling the shots would result in getting shit done and also prevent the country from slipping into another civil war (assuming the military was onside).
Obviously choosing the right family to rule over you for many generations to come would be a huge call to make.
But as an outsider and, IMO, the perfect contenders to begin your own royal dynasty, would be the family of the best President you've had during my lifetime.
Hello Queen Chelsea.
Granted, having to call Hillary your "Queen Mother" may not go down well in some quarters, but she won't be around forever.
Thoughts?

Can't wait for when a Dem POTUS declares a national emergency re climate change and mandates zero emissions immediately. I'll feel bad for the like 10 coal miners that are currently still employed in the US when the government shuts their mine down. But the histrionics from the lunatic side of the "GOP" will be hilarious.
Queen whore of Fox News Laura Ingraham retweeted this.
Do I see splits between Trump and his most loyal cranks in the media starting to appear?
Hannity next?
