Sounds like bs to me. He had to waive laws to do this. And if he didn't do this what would happen? Would he get in trouble with the super president?

Yeah Congress didn't tie his hands and force him to override laws (which by the acts definition should only be invoked to protect the nation against threats).

He could just add easily declare his hands tied by the 26 laws he is instead breaking. He could say the wall's completion wouldn't do anything to enhance national security (something i recall libs saying when it was trumps wall).

This is a lie, plain and simple.

Sounds like you a passionate about the topic, do some more reading do you can understand.

So you can't tell me what's forcing the president to do this? What repercussions he'd face and from where?

Don’t be lazy, if you care so much look it up. The other poster already explained it for you and you chose not to believe it.

"President" is not "King"

Money is controlled by Republican Congress.

Republican Congress is not controlled by Democrat President.

Yes you're recognizing the liberal urge to defend fascist behavior

Your inability to process information provided to you makes any discourse impractical.

Cool. You feel better now that you've joined late and got a meaningless jab in? Got that dopamine hit?

Not defending it, since I'm not familiar enough with the topic, but he waived protections provided the laws - not the laws themselves, which must be within his power if he's done it.

Waive laws? Lol. He would get impeached because that's breaking the law.
