Trump starts his speech by saying that he's building the "big, beautiful" wall "right smack on the Rio Grande," but quickly pivots to go on a rant about the Academy Awards

My theme: Optics Are Important
2) Q reminded us of the strategies and tactics being used by both sides in the battle for control of the world.

The first thing Q wants us to understand is the importance of optics—how things are perceived by the public.
3) Many people believe POTUS is losing the war.
With the mockingbird media blaring non-stop propaganda about the Mueller investigation and how close Trump is to being indicted it's easy to think nothing positive is happening.

We forget that half the war is a battle over optics

1) Trump can, but does not want, to declare a national emergency in order to build the wall. It is a very nice position to be in, really, knowing that he can get what he wants one way or the other. But he still wants it to go through congress. Why?
2) Because he wants a Republican congress and senate again after 2020. Right now, he's on track to win 2020. He's an incumbent in a good economy, and right now the markets both like a deadlocked government AND is now immune to the shocks that plagued the Obama shutdowns.
3) But he can't have another round of House and Senate elections like what we saw for 2018. We didn't bleed as much as we could have and even edged out a gain in the Senate, and Trump's name will be on the ballot, but the GOP isn't going to save itself, they're incapable of it.

This #SundayMorning Trump has reiterated his threats to declare a national emergency and bypass Congress to build his border wall.

Can Trump abuse his executive powers in this way and what, if anything, can be done to stop him?

(2) First off, there are not a lot of rules about declaring national emergencies. And sadly, even in America, this executive power is rarely checked by Congress.

It's a tactic that has been used by both authoritarians and democracies around the world.
washingtonpost.com/world/2019/01/…
(3) While Trump can declare a national emergency at his discretion, he can't invoke one indefinitely without Congressional approval. And there are some limits to how this authority can be used to deploy troops & use funding.

Excellent article and must read. President @realDonaldTrump can fund the border wall without congressional approval.

There is precedent from other administrations who moved money around to do what they want.

No more excuses, build the wall !

usatoday.com/story/opinion/…
There is no greater priority than border security. The Democrats are pushing for open borders and starting to say that migration is a human right. We need tough laws to be put in place and a border wall to make it easier for our border agents to do their jobs.
Walls work, that is why the globalists are doing everything in their power to oppose the building of the wall.

There are 30 million illegals here and hundreds of thousands come in every year. What is the limit? There is no limit for these traitors.
