Thanks, yeah kind of tell to go "I'm declaring an emergency just to pass policy, and this is the policy" It's kind of weird to put "President Trump" instead of just "the President" on a declaration. A) We know who the president currently is. B) What if he never does and we have a new President?

Part of the problem is that no one trusts SCOTUS anymore so even if Ds were inclined to scale back emergency powers, there's a chance the law would get declared unconstitutional during a R administration. Plus, the standing issue.

Of course, but we're not anywhere close to the point where Johnson will put a bill like that on the floor. He just blew up the House schedule rather than allow for a vote on the proxy-vote discharge petition.

The proper light, or at least the candid one, is that Trump is not be trusted with the powers usually afforded to other Presidents due to him being a malignant ignoramus. You can correctly accuse him of abusing that power, but he has it.

If “don’t crash the economy” is anywhere near as popular as “ban the most popular app,” there are votes to override. Admittedly, the jury is out on how popular that first position is in the GOP.

But that’s all they have this late in the game. Then they have to try to get 2/3 to vote to force it through. Gotta toss everything at it even if you just have corn kernels

The threshold for conviction in an impeachment trial is 2/3rds, the same for overriding a veto.

Vetoes can be overridden, especially if there's consensus that there's damage from the decisions

They could also just vote to rescind the emergency declaration that's the basis for his authority to apply the tariffs, trump can't veto that

If Congress isn’t willing to use their authority to STOP the tariff bs how do you imagine they will ever swing impeaching him?

In solidarity I’m asking for the help of all who are opposed Trump regime polices to place the message of “Lock them up”, in as many places where Trump’s name or any of his regimes names are posted for whatever purpose in protest of their policies. We need a digital voice in great numbers now!
