TRUMP: "I want to do it faster. I could do the wall over a longer period of time. I didn't need to do this. But I'd rather do it much faster."

FACT: You just undercut your entire argument for declaring a national emergency. 👍🏽

1. Washington Post-Trump just kneecapped his own case for a "national emergency"

2. He's a psychopathic, demented old fool, UGH.

3. We have a national emergency alright.

We have an unrestrained psychotic wannabe dictator who has control of our nuclear codes and just lost badly on his signature campaign lie. Undoubtedly, this butthurt idiot is thinking about his next distraction tactic. That is scary. This man is a clear danger to the country and the world. For the first time I am really getting concerned about what he might do next.

5. We also have a hostile foreign entity posing as a news network calling the shots.

Fox News is in control of the White House now. It's time to pry their iron grip from the government.

[ooky]

7. You bet.

We're in some serious shit right now.

4. This was a "fuck you" to his opponents.

Nothing more, nothing less. That's what the Fox News shout outs were about. They are literally calling the shots at this point.

6. Taking funding from other places actually makes us MORE prone to a terrorist attack.

8. "I didn't need to do this."

Ergo: no emergency by his own declaration. Even Senate Republicans can hide behind that one.
