Bit disingenuous using cost as an argument, because didn't the Democrat budget proposals cost even more? Especially when you add in the cost of the Democrat induced shutdown.
Congress controls spending - the Emergency Powers are a way to get round Congressional oversight, and Trump said himself he didn’t need to do it this way.
