GOP Resists Using National Emergency For Border Wall | Morning Joe | MSNBC

[Bogieking]

Can Graham be anymore of a slimebag? My God, Chairman of the Senate Judicial committee and he doesn't know the constitution? What has happened to our country?

[fofk]

Even in Nixon's last days in office, 35% of his base still believed he was a super guy.

[wildego]

The Republican priority was the tax cut.

[Cajek]

"There's rarely an education from a second kick of the mule"

I hope that applies to the American people when it comes to 2020

[johnnydavisson]

Graham belongs behind bars with Trump.

[FM-dkvp]

No audience for trump. Don't miss Stephen Colbert's after show though!

[richardhjones]

As Lincoln said "You can fool all the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time, but you can not fool all the people all of the time." The only people he is fooling all the time are his lame supporters.

[fatoutouray]

Graham is shame to American democracy

[DYNAMITE]

He is NOT a Democrat, and he never was. He is a day trader. He lived in a state that is a strong Democratic stronghold, so he donated accordingly and parroted a few talking points in an effort to gain influence. That's it.

[Scott]

I've never been to the circus before, but I can only assume that it's something like watching the Trump administration.

[faceoff]

*Make America Great Again Impeach Donald J Trump and Mike Pence from Office*

[CatSpann]

I’ll be watching anything but the SOTU. #BoycottTrump

[earlenewallace]

All of the three choices that he mentions are terrible, a true Hobson's Choice, and Lindsey Graham is a truly appalling human being.

[pikayell]

"Mexico will pay for the wall". I keep saying that to trumpets who want his promises kept. Or "the best health care for all".

[davidellis]

The Whitehouse can't even spell comedy correctly. Tonight will be comical.

[SqueakyVegan]

to divide, to scapegoat, to polarize, to imprison, to enslave, to exploit, to dominate, never to create the state of a union, but to create a state of chaos

[m.a.]

Graham has disqualified himself. He needs to be fired.

[gmdave]

This is the People's Country not Trump's

[alaskabear]

It’s simple; Trump could have had his wall funding by now. He had 2 years and control over both houses of Congress....it doesn’t get easier than that. But as President he has been too busy golfing, watching TV and stroking his ego at useless rallys (talking about the wall). The truth is Trump doesn’t want a wall, he wants to keep the divisive immigrant issue alive, something that will keep him at the center of attention and draw focus from what is

[EdmundKempersDartboard]

The turtle is finally coming out of his shell.
