"Declaring a national emergency would be a lawless act, a gross abuse of the power of the presidency and a desperate attempt to distract from the fact that President Trump broke his core promise to have Mexico pay for his wall."
Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer unequivocally condemn Trump's plan to make use of the National Emergencies Act to circumvent Congress - behaviour that is spectacularly childish even by his low standards.
They might have added, as the BBC report does, that migration experts have "strongly refuted" any suggestion that there is a crisis that might even potentially warrant such a wall. Of course, Donny's not exactly known for letting the small matter of facts affect his judgement, though.
