Declaring a national emergency would be a lawless act, a gross abuse of the power of the presidency and a desperate attempt to distract from the fact that @realDonaldTrump broke his core promise to have Mexico pay for his wall.

It is yet another demonstration of
@realDonaldTrump’s naked contempt for the rule of law. This is not an emergency, and the President’s fearmongering doesn’t make it one.Show this thread
.@realDonaldTrump couldn’t convince Mexico, the American people or their elected representatives to pay for his ineffective and expensive wall, so now he’s trying an end-run around Congress in a desperate attempt to put taxpayers on the hook for it.

Immigrants take over the jobs we don't want and get payed unfair wages. Without them, who would support US? This nation was founded on immigration. Why are we being so unfair to those who wish to follow in our footsteps?

Follow in our footsteps.... why are we not concerned with the people here following in our footsteps... I stand for taking care of the immigrants here which are Americans too.we just can’t financially support the world.I would love too but is hurting a lot of people already here.

Yeah but it's ok for all the crap that you and your socialist cronies shove down our throats that we dont want that you all use to line your bank accounts that we pay for. How about you take a $1 a year salary and actually be a public servant? Didn't think so.

Are you smoking the product that company your son worked for or does he just dose you with liquid? Here WE THE PEOPLE can't afford walls like yours. Build one wall to protect all instead or tear your walls down and get rid of fire arms your security carries,guns are dangerous.

Mexico is paying us in the form of tax. Since Trump changed the tax rules , Mexico has to pay a billions in the form of tax. Wall is peanuts compared to benefit from the new deal
