A Nod To The Gods

In February Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell made a deal with Republican President Trump.
McConnell promised to support the President’s emergency declaration on the southern border if President Trump would sign another bloated spending bill that included little to no money for a border barrier.

Now the Turtle is flipping on his deal with POTUS.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) has broken a reported promise to President Donald Trump, admitting Monday that he failed to prevent Republican Senators from passing a resolution blocking a national emergency declaration on the U.S.-Mexico border.

McConnell is saying that Trump using his executive powers could set a precedent….bullshit. National emergencies have been declared for all kinds of reasons that are not and never were a national emergency. Some declarations were downright dubious, particularly Obama’s Libya declaration. And to McConnell’s point that a future democratic POTUS could use the power to declare national emergencies against guns is…..double bullshit.

First off, Trumps declaration secures our border, there is ample evidence that securing the border has become numero uno priority considering the invasion that has been ongoing for decades and is now out of fucking control. It is a necessity for the safety of the American people and deters illegal activity along the border, it has nothing to do with the constitution as far as who it effects.

Secondly, a declaration against guns flies directly in the face of the constitution, NO U.S. President in their right mind would ever use executive privilege against the 2nd amendment, they would have an immediate revolution on their hands and they know it, they also know they would not have the luxury of law enforcement on their side and a target on their back, it would be a dangerous idea to even mention in circles they would deem safe spaces.

The Senate mutiny against Trump, regardless of his veto power, reveals the large yellow stripe down the backs of Republicans unwilling to forgo large checks from vested interests in open borders and a liberal like disdain for the American people. Democrats wouldn’t do this to Obama but it’s an all to common practice against Trump.

With friends like these, who needs enemies.
