I'm sure they are terrified. They will just hate to get their turn at declaring federal emergencies over climate change, police misconduct, income inequality, etc. in a couple of years.

According to the FBI, which publishes the data in the Uniform Crime Reports, from 1980–2014, an average of 64 law enforcement officers were feloniously killed each year.

It matters. The question is whether it should matter enough to spend 25B on a wall.

No needle was moved here...
It was the soft-sell approach but he just can't soft-sell.
Senate R's are going to demand he cave... likely tomorrow... if not sooner than later.

I call out Trump as being a lying sack of shit.
Conservatives will cry the same about Pelosi and Schumer.
It will be interesting to monitor public opinion after this.

Would the $25B wall effectively put an end to this country's illegal Mexican immigration, and drug trafficking problems?

This isn't going to move anyone either way... Democrats have said repeatedly they support border security... they said again he has to surrender to have any hope in winning.
Popular opinion was behind the Democrats not the WH/Republicans.
Trump also dropped basically all of his "wall" talk... the wall is dead now... until he revives it tomorrow.

Clocker and a few others have cited multiple polls showing the wall is currently an unpopular policy item.

My take on the Fake National Crisis Address:
The Orange Man just jumped the shark tonight.
He's done.

He's done? What does that even mean? Done how?
Even further, why do you care? You don't even live here.
