I have been following the News about the argument between Congress and President Trump. The News that gets my attention on February 15, 2019, Trump Declares National Emergency to Build Border Wall By Peter Baker the chief White House correspondent for The New York Times.
Finally, President Trump has declared a national emergency in order to fulfill his campaign promise. Congress has given the president the power to decide and failing to define crucial terms, legal standards and accountability rules. Congress has allowed Trump to abuse the powers and let him crush democratic institutions. It has been known for weeks that this was a possibility and the lawmakers did nothing.
According to the New York Times, Mr. Trump both accept the new bill and then declare a national emergency. Will he try to reprogram the money approved by Congress for other emergencies such as disaster relief, flood control, housing for military families? It is very confusing for me how can he do both actions. This declaration of a national emergency is, of course, pathetic, and it is a real national crisis that will damage the democracy of the country and will be irreversible unless we see Democrats and Republicans put our country first and stop him. Trump declaration of emergency is only to fulfill his campaign promise and fund for the wall. As American, it is the craziness of the move and the danger of using power to get his own way. Since Trump came to American politics, he has done a lot of things in his own direction and nobody can stop him from doing what he wants to do. We do not even know what next.
