"Heil Drumpf!!"

This is the answer the fagggot OP is looking for. It looks like the PT board disappointed his trolling arse.

Seems like a bad move from a bird's eye view. But we most likely don't have all the information to know if it's the right decision or not.

Why not? Obama sold guns to Mexican gangs. At least these weapons don’t have a chance of crossing the border and killing us on our own soil. I’d rather this and not sending troops.

No, but I’m not in the loop of the goings on behind the scenes. I’m confident that he did it for the right reasons. He deserves the benefit.

No, not ok with this. We shouldn't be friends with the Saudi's.

I expected to find a thread full of recrimination.

I was not disappointed.

Is this an unprecedented action the President is taking? It is obviously lawful for him to do this. Has the emergency authority been used in this capacity by previous presidents?
Is the situation one in which the declaration is appropriate?

What is your specific objection? Do you object to the president sending arms to this particular country, or do you object to the president using the emergency declaration for this purpose?

I am not cool with the President completely attempting to destroy democracy. We have 3 branches of government and the combined Congress voted to NOT provide these weapons to Sheik” Bone Saw”.

This is stupid on Trumps part. I was fine with the emergency declaration on the wall because it was mérites. This isn’t even debateable and utterly pathetic in Trumps part. The Saudi’s are POS and in no way is selling a bunch of terrorist sponsoring assholes representative of an emergency.

They’re killing Hezbollah and Hamas. I’m sure our Muslims in congress don’t appreciate it.

I do not have much of a problem selling arms to KSA. We have been doing so for many, many years.

But I HATE another fake emergency declaration. In the entire history of the 1976 NEA, there have been MAYBE a half-dozen real emergencies worthy of reliance on the Act.
