You don't get away with that crap. If you were to visit other sites you will see how many are acting just as I said. You could kick a dog and say "Mitt Romney! You went both sides". In this your thinking is a major problem, that when a serious threat being proposed and adopted by your "own" is to be ignored or trivialized.
That's your other side of the coin, your equivalent of Mitch and "Mueller doesn't need protection".
Just had to bring up both sides in something that matters in a universal way.
No Democratic leaders have proposed what you insinuated they might, which is to declare a national emergency over something that isn't an emergency. There has been a fair number of others offering up such actions as a cautionary tale for our GOP brethren.
Your swipe at Democrats was uncalled for.
It seems you’re answering a question I didn’t ask?
The controlling members of the GOP and Trump are seeking to destroy our Constitution and call for an Imperial Presidency, one that can do all things.
Find "Democratic leaders" in the above. Fail.
The obvious problem is precedent. The leaders of the future are unknown so we don't know what ANY of them will do. But would you like universal coverage? Yes you would. It's been argued as a national emergency, a crisis of great import. But maybe the solution would be to declare a national emergency. Congress, the Constitution? Well we can't afford to worry about that now. The President has no choice...
That is precisely how I expect the apologists to act in circling the wagons. You are on that list of potential usurpers for the "greater good" of course. But today? In terms of leadership, I stand with the Dems and you are going to have a pretty damn hard time factually challenging that.
That said, there ARE people on the left who ARE now seeing this a possible approach for all the things you might want. Bypass elections, bypass Congress. We need an effective monarch on "our" side. That idea is out there now, no "bothsides" crap.
The question is if that sentiment will grow now that it's in the public mind or fade and that no one can answer. If it grows then I wonder how many here will make excuses for it. At least a few.
Yes?
The wall is a base play. Nothing more. The reason for the wall is symbolism. At least on his side. On the Dem side it is a matter of policy and not giving into toddlers throwing tantrums. That we absolutely agree on.
Both houses of Congress stand adjourned so this is going to last well into next week at a minimum.

Which is very much a fringe thing among Libs, often referenced in a tongue in cheek manner. It's mainstream in the GOP, apparently. Nowhere is the American Left involved in a leader cult, other than perhaps with Bernie. We're not authoritarian by nature.
Tell me in no uncertain terms that you won't support, embrace, mitigate or do anything other than condemning ANY President for declaring an "emergency" in the way it was meant and that does not include any agenda.
I already did.
Well....Graham has gone into full kiss the ring mood. What a spineless weasel.
