Trump assumed office almost 2 years ago.
The Wall was his signature campaign issue.
The Republicans controlled Congress and the Administration.
For 2 years this was not an Emergency and nothing was sent to the President for a signature, though there were negotiations and meetings.
Mid term elections and the House was lost.
In the last week of the 115th Congress it became an emergency and made the shutdown of the government necessary and justifiable in Trump's opinion.
Sound a little odd or is this just the methodology of a great negotiator?

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
