On Trump:
How conservative Republicans can continue to support this arrogant imposter—the man who brags about inflicting the world with the Covid mark of the beast; the man who said, “Take the guns first, go through due process second”; and the man who deliberately played and then set up Stewart Rhodes (of course, Stewart was all too eager to be Trump’s patsy) for an 18-year prison sentence—is truly beyond my comprehension.” Chuck Baldwin
I'm surprised that anyone at all here is defending this declaration of National Emergency.
The Ron Paul Forums of 2012 would have been opposed to the President using National Emergency powers to override the congress for any reason.
If you wanted some sort of Ideological purity, you'll get none of that from me.
Well, maybe not for "any" reason. I mean, the Federal Debt is a ticking time bomb... If there was ever a real "national emergency", that is it!

Agreed.
This isn't something to joke about. It's a super serious national emergency. Many lives and walls are in danger.

This thread is about the national emergency.. I asked how Trump's national emergency was growing government. You are like the fifth person to respond incorrectly and out of context.

It's almost as if noone here is taking the national emergency seriously. (besides us)

I'm not taking the national emergency seriously, all Trump is doing is moving money that would be spent on drug enforcement and is using it to build a wall. One of those things is Constitutional (the wall) and one is not (drug enforcement).
It's those guys who are taking it seriously, like it is going to be some horrible thing, another big mistake by Trump.. how exactly is that?

What truly grinds my gears is that all of these $#@! hole country migrants are making a mockery of the sanctity of our voting systems.
Is nothing sacred anymore?

Yes it's absolutely ridiculous, that these illegal immigrants are allowed to vote for all these socialist policies.
Only Americans should be allowed to do that.

Welfare is for Americans!! Donald Trump's government is creating thousands of welfare jobs, adding billions of dollars to the GDP. Don't people realize that when these construction workers start spending that money we will all be rich?
The usual pessimists on RPF can't even be bothered to see God's Work. Sad!

I don't know if you're joking or not but Donald Trump has campaigned on being the last blockade of socialism.
I, for one, take him super serious and I am proud that we have such a free market capitalist in the White House.
Could you imagine the socialist boondoggles this country would be undertaking if Hilary Clinton had been elected? She would have bankrupted this country.
Donald Trump isn't perfect but at least he, as a businessman, understands assets and liabilities and he is working to get this ship back on track.

He needs to declare a National Emergency on jobs. I went to use my food card the other day and there were only two cashiers working.
I felt like I was in Venezuela.

Home Depot - "Allahu Akbar"
FILE - Authorities stand near a damaged Home Depot truck after a motorist drove onto a bike path near the World Trade Center memorial, striking and killing several people in New York, Oct. 31, 2017.
An Uzbek national is accused of using a rented truck to mow down pedestrians on a bike path Tuesday in New York City, killing at least eight and injuring 12, in what Police Commissioner James O'Neill called "the worst terror attack in New York City since Sept. 11, 2001."
According to NYPD Deputy Commissioner of Intelligence and Counterterrorism John Miller, the suspect, Sayfullo Saipov, left handwritten notes pledging his support for the Islamic State group.
It's not uncommon following mass-casualty events like the Tuesday attack in New York City that people become confused about whether the incidents amount to terrorism. The U.S. government has a strict legal definition of terrorism, which the FBI describes as an attack motivated by "political, religious, social, racial or environmental" beliefs.
Due to Saipov's Islamic radicalization and his support for IS, authorities quickly labeled his attack as terrorism. After he used his truck to run over pedestrians, authorities say Saipov began shouting "Allahu Akbar," which means "God is great" in Arabic, and is commonly uttered by Islamic terrorists.

Immigrants vote for bigger government at twice the rate of citizens. We are giving away welfare to illegal immigrants to come here, then only to vote for bigger government.
I don't understand why this is such a difficult concept to grasp.

Black people.

Trump to declare national emergency for border wall after signing spending bill
Yes, I know that a trumpkin hid the lede in the title, but it's still there.
Well then call it a national emergency to end welfare. And end big government. That’s the real problem right?

Run on that platform, get elected and say it is the will of the people. I would frame it as giving welfare back to the states to run, though.. with all the people dependent on welfare, it is probably something that needs to be scaled back over time.
Trump didn't run on that. Trump did win, though, and the result will be less people voting for big government in the future than if he lost. Because he is fulfilling his campaign promises.

Do The Wall And Government Shutdown Justify A National Emergency?
The words "National Emergency" should send shivers down the spine of anyone that values their liberty. At the same time, these words are music to the ears of those who lust after power. President Trump's threats to rule by fiat should not be taken lightly. Ron Paul discuses on today's Liberty Report.

And run the country by executive fiat. The battle cry of the populist.
Everything Trump is doing is legal, when we have set things right we can change that but there is no reason to fight with both hands tied behind our backs.

FDR and some other past presidents actually bypassed congress much more. Clinton and Trump are virtually tied with executive orders per year, at 45.5 versus 46.
