Pelosi warns GOP: Next president could declare national emergency on guns

So does the president need to arrest some traitors working for Putin because I see him wanting our borders open like the Democrats.

Just curious, how do they plan to enforce UBC on private individuals selling to each other.

It’s the Presidents, any one denying him his responsibility probably works for the Russians or Chinese.

Such a declaration would be protecting americans from what our military considers a severe national security risk.

You completely miss the point, of course.

You miss the point, of course.

Yup, or healthcare.

Probably. As a patriot, I am going to volunteer my house as the first building in line for a free energy upgrade. In fact, there is no reason to declare a national emergency. They can do it tomorrow if they like. :yum:

No you did. Dems are now voicing their radical views not thinking of the political ramifications. Can’t wait for the 2020 election cycle at this point. Should be a blast.

You know what’s really radical? Circumventing the Constitution to fulfill a stupid campaign promise that most Americans don’t want.

Pelosi didn’t say they were going to or wanted to declare an emergency over guns, she said they could. And of course they can. Trump’s disastrous plan is an existential threat to our democracy. And I think it’s hilarious that you think Pelosi is speaking and “not thinking of the political ramifications.” Hilarious and naive.

It should be. And the primary season will be even more entertaining than the general election. I can’t wait to see 15 liberals all lined up trying to out socialist each other. It should go something like this: “Oh yeah, that’s all you got? I’m offering free beer for life. Beat that sucka!”

I can’t wait. This is really going to get really good. :smirk:

No right is unlimited. Even the constitutionalist Scalia wrote as much in his rulings. Read Heller.

Why didn’t Trump declare it last year or the year before?

She projected. Deny it all you want,

“the epidemic of gun violence in America is an emergency. Why don’t you declare that a national emergency. I wish you would. A democratic president can. “

That’s one heluva sound byte.

He expected congress to do its job.

They did

They failed.

Who said that anybody is circumventing the constitution? A declaration of national emergency is the right of a President. If I am not mistaken, Obama did it 12 times.

No they didn’t. It’s not their job to give the President everything he wants

You’re trying to read her mind. Deny it all you want.

More Americans think gun violence is a problem than the Mexican border. But as I said, you miss the point. The point is that Trump is opening the door to future abuses of power by presidents on the left and right, and people who value our democracy and way of life should be outraged.
