For GOP lawmakers, loyalty with President Trump remains a one-way street. Having lost two rounds of negotiations, he dismissed their warnings and showed contempt for the separation of powers.

Borderline personality

Pray for America and for Donald..because we need the help.

He never says that. That is the dems and illegals. It's all about the illegals, racism and oh yes, votes. Can win without them. Hahahahahzhahahzh

With Trump and his 30% holding the Republican party hostage, demanding loyalty to him and his 'National Emergency'?

Well his 1 purpose is defending the United States.

It’s about his incompetence and their impotence.

Nope. He reminds them that it’s about America.

it's all about keeping the country safe from criminal illegals MS-13 and drugs. He did it to protect us. Since no other president who has said the border was in crisis but did nothing. Talk to the border patrol and the angel moms for the truth

No this is not all about you Trump you work for the people of the US not the Trump foundation not your family the people of do US Trump needs to remember this.

yes it is because he stands alone for us!!!

.... and the angel Moms, and Kate Steinly and peole living near the border, and drug addicts and sex slaves and....

When doctors did exam on Trump’s health and found Hannity did they find any money for his wall?

More lies and fake news By the Washington Compost

👍

...and they still don’t get it! He’s making them look like complete fools and the worst part is they are letting him.

It's about America's safety and people

Trump is just a national embarrassment!!

No actually we don’t see it like that at all , we know who left town and partied during the shutdown

Maybe you check into this... As Ecuador sought the duo's extradition, the Isaías family reportedly donated tens of thousands of dollars to members of the U.S. Congress and $90,000 to former President Obama’s reelection campaign.

Or it’s about the wall. I vote for the wall.

The psychopaths believe their own lies are truth - when does the United States do the same with Trump as they did with Nixon!

nytimes wolfblitzer maddow morningmika AriMelber Lawrence NicolleDWallace Everyday Trump reminds us that he is an authoritarian. When will Congress start to Impeach. Please do not wait till it is to late.

17 emergency actions by Clinton 13 by the boy king. Trump... 3

stop looking in the mirror and start writing some facts 🤔🙏👍👌😎

Hey stupid, it’s about the security of this country. It’s not that difficult to understand

King Narcissist!

Oh No, it’s not all about him, it’s about the 80 million who support him, and want a border wall.

Your tweet is bull hockey!

(he’s the leader of the free world)

Hey GOP, don't take advice on how to Republican from a paper that has been trying to destroy you for decades.

Its all about his voters who want a wall on Southern border and were also promised a wall by Trump; Its about keeping your election promises to your voters and not folding under pressure to ignore your peomises.

Obama declared 13 national emergencies, so what does that say about him? I certainly do not remember you squawking about it.

Obama had 13 can't we have just one

Idiot

United States Code Title 10 in Sections 2808 and 284 gives President Trump all authority he requires with out Congress.

It’s actually all about us- Americans first.

In tweeting, The Washington Post reminds the public: its all about fake news

It’s always been about trump! From day one!!!

Fake News. Obama said 'I', every sentence, Trump says 'WE'!

Or could be all about the promises he made for the people who voted for him?

The Democrats are investigating Trump’s use of the National Emergencies Act yet they said nothing on all those occasions when Obama used it. They even defend DACA when it is clearly unconstitutional. Dangerous clowns.

What a bunch of cowards.

Your Newpaper is a insult to every America regardless of their political party. Here's the new Washington Post IT'S NOT JUST A NATIONAL EMERGENCY IT A WAR AT THE BORDER. GET YOUR HEADS OUT OF YOUR ASS.

Dem talk: -Abolish ICE -Borderless hemisphere -Walls are immoral -Illegals should vote -Raise taxes POTUS action: -Regs reduced -Taxes cut -Econ growing -5 million new jobs -Justices Gorsuch AND Kavanaugh -Out of Iran deal -Embassy in Jerusalem -Hostages home from NK -New NAFTA

In the beginning, before Trump ascended from Heaven (escalator), it has always been about Trump. Trump first, to hell with all else. Trump didn't care that the Russians interfered and out popped collusion.

Its all about him he is such a great Patriot! Everytime he filled BANKRUPTCY he was really looking out for the Americans hes fucking over! Or the millions hes costing Americans golfing! Or shutting down the government with a fake crisis! Hes got America best interest in mind.

Guessing those angel families meant nothing to you.

The fact Democrats are calling 2000 illegals streaming across our border daily a 'manufactured crisis' tells you all you need to know about Democrats.

But who among his die hard supporters would disagree with that headline? He is enabled by those blind to his atrocities and have bought into this idea of a border crisis that is a national emergency. He us just pandering to those buy the talk.

Since his birth, he pledged allegiance to himself. And himself only. Like, exclusively. And boy, does he hold the road on this one.

No. Its all about the people who voted for Trump to secure our borders and stop illegal immigration.

I have a hard time watching Trump's rambling live! It is getting so easy to spot the lies, and he spends too much time patting himself on the back for imagined triumphs! Not sure how he can be irritating and boring at the same time! But he can!

👇😄

If he wins, we all win, or at least those who want to win.

This is such a bs headline

or all about the people of our country who voted for him to build the wall

No, that was Obama! Trump is all about his Oath to protect the PEOPLE!!!!!

'I know more about fisting than anyone'

😂😂😂😂

I Question how many Democrat politicians and people are on Drug Cartels payroll. It's the only thing that makes sense why the Democrats Resist protecting our borders. 🔥🔥

Trump really rambles when he holds a press conference. Less talk please!

No kidding, Republicans suck. Trump doesn’t. Glad you finally recognize that.

That hair is a national emergency.

Americans elected Trump over the Republican establishment.

I don't care what party is in the Oval Office, but they took an oath to UPHOLD the Constitution. That means representing Americans - NOT FOREIGNERS breaking laws and abusing our country and sex trafficking or murdering our children. Or taking education benefits from them.

wants his fall to be heard around the world

Just goes to show that Trump really doesn't care about our country. He only cares about getting his own way, and btw, he is a really lousy at making a deal. Do me a favor, just play golf and forget about the Border. We're doing fine.

Officer Singh

Fro trump, everything is ALWAYS all about trump. Excessively large ego; diminutively small brain.

No it’s about enforcing our laws (that Congress passed) and protecting our Nations sovereignty!!!!!

PRO TIP: When you begin an article with the word 'Analysis', you're trying to pre-dispose the reader into not challenging what follows.

It is about security, it about American life style. In California 15 illegal immigrants live in one house and they work for $6 dollars an hour. Do you like that life style?

Trump claimed he loved the military but now his fake national emergency is stealing money that was designated for the military!

It's all about Americans, realDonaldTrump ........................for the first time in decades.

IT'S ABOUT security. The People want the wall, we want illegals off our tax dime, want illegals to stop milking our system, want illegals to stop murdering Americans, want illegals to stop taking jobs & keeping wages down for hard working Americans.

In declaring a national emergency, Trump reminds America his working for them

Going back to Carter, all POTUSs have declared at least one national emergency while in office. For his part, Barack Obama declared 13 national emergencies, with many of them focused on international affairs and containing foreign conflicts.

Not biased at all

Fact Check: senatemajldr had his statement at the ready. Communications are intact. WaPo gets one Pinocchio.

The wall is not about security and all about vanity.

and how is that different from every other day?

Actually....it's all about America.

We won't build a wall Break or lock up families Our solution to the problem Pretend there's nothing to see Russians, global warming Spread lies so much, that's real We don't share your view Looking down from capital hill … … … … …

At least I can call in sick Monday. Nobody can be expected to work during an emergency, right?

An emergency so dire he had to... stop by the omelette bar on the way to another round of golf?

ГДЕ МАШИНА ТРАМП?

*Evergreen*

It’s all about Americans. You elitists will never get that. You’ll never know what it’s like to have to buy generic ketchup. You’ll never know what this President means to us.

And his micro-penis.

How is an ongoing invasion of America all about Trump?

It's all about Trump, not America, not humanity, not justice, just self-absorption.

Trump could have taken the high road and put his money toward infrastructure.

Definitely! That's what's the case since his presidency started! 😐😶🙄

Democrats, Republicans warn Trump against declaring emergency over border wall fundingThe announcement that President Trump planned to declare a national emergency on Thursday was met almost instantly with fierce criticism from top Democrats and some Republicans denouncing the idea and warning of what is to come. Precedent? They'll live. So he should just do nothing regarding protecting & defending USA? Who cares who comes across the border? Who cares about the Constitution or the law-abiding citizens of this country?
