Trump is desperate to be a part of Canada, huh?

What are the protocols/powers involved in declaring something a national emergency? Like what decision power does the president gain in that scenario?

EDIT: This site seems to cover a lot of the benefits gained and what protections are in place to limit overreach, but given the current state of affairs I can’t imagine why Congress would reign in the abuse.

Lol at there no longer being a border problem. How exactly does this change ANYTHING about guns and fentanyl crossing between Canada and the US? And whatever immigration problems Trump is complaining about would be completely moot if suddenly the entire country are now forced to become US immigrants.

Because in that syphilis riddled brain, the orange-blunder has had the brain-shart concept slip out of the diseased sections and into what passes for a consciousness, that by only having a state line, there is no border, and so he will have solved "the border crisis". This is not a rational human being we're dealing with, it's a geriatric puppet-dictator who very likely has some form of degenerative brain condition.

Is it really a "longtime tariff" when it was implemented a week ago? I guess when you have the memory of a goldfish...

This is the stupidest thing ever. If he really wants a 51st state then Puerto Rico is right there and wants to gain statehood.

No one wants this, this old diapered man needs to go back into the home

He can't take a clear 'no' for an answer. No wonder he's a convicted rapist.

I'd rather the West Coast become part of Canada.

I think they should secede and form their own union and then we can ally with them at least as close as we allied with the US. I don't wanna let them in until they've dealt with the baggage that'll come with that breakup, like the gun obsessed rednecks.
