Military will build border wall if Pelosi, Schumer don’t agree to pay for it: Trump


Sorry Donald they won’t. Not without shutting the government down. You signed the omnibus bill in which the traitor Paul Ryan inserted a “poison pill”. The new congress will do the same where you will either have to veto it or shut the government down. The bill may stall in the senate, but the result will be the same. Short term chaos to fund operations, or a government shutdown while the house proceeds with impeachment. You should have played hardball with Ryan.

A military can always build fortifications which could be the wall or its equivalent. President is the CIC and he can and is constitutionally obligated to defend the nation against external threats. The migrant invasion is just that, an invasion and it has and will be continued to be so defined to justify a military response. That response includes defensive fortifications such as wall.

Congress can’t tell the president that he can’t authorize the army to use tanks or dig fox-holes in a military action; same thing with defensive structures.

Congress will squawk but what are they going to do? Impeach him? The House is already to do that for ponry Daniels. A looney judge interfering with a military order? Perhaps, but that judge could face sedition (Trump would let him know privately)

The Army can rearrange their budget, so can the Navy, and build the wall. Easy peasy.
