President Trump declared his second “National Emergency” less than a week after he declared one to fund his “Border Wall”. This one is to provide immediate funds for a military parade like the one that was canceled last year due to lack of funding.
“We need this Yuge parade to celebrate our victory over ISIS and show how much our brave boys and girls in uniform support me, and also to show our allies that they can’t bully us around. “

Asked why he deemed this a “National Emergency, he stated,  “ I could wait for Congress to pass this but they probably won’t and besides, I might not be around in a few more months.”

Sources close the President said that funds would come from rehab programs at Walter Reed and other VA to treat wounded veterans who suffer from physical and mental wounds from military actions abroad.

Lindsay Graham, the senior Republican in the US Senate came out strongly in support of this saying “The best medicine we can give our wounded soldiers is to show our unanimous support for our President with this Military parade.”

The Democrats in Congress are expected to oppose this, but with little chance of overriding a Presidential veto.
