- I can do it if I want

Two weeks have passed since the United states ' partial "shutdown" was a reality. About 800 000 public employees is affected after the funding of all non-essential government operations were stopped. The reason for the decision was that Trump has not gotten the Democrats to allocate 40 billion Norwegian kroner for the security of Mexico-the border.

the President has already gone out and said that he is prepared to hold out for several months or even years if it is to get the Democrats to give in to his financial demands. Currently, the party has just agreed to allocate more than one billion dollars to grensesikring.

Now threaten Trump to declare situation of national crisis, ignoring the Democrats in total and build grensemuren without the support of the party's representatives.

- I can do it if I want to, absolutely. We can declare a national emergency on the basis of our country's security and build a wall very quickly. But if we can get it to through a negotiation process, so we try it, " said Trump during Friday's press conference, according to the Washington Post.

He shall at the same time have argued that if the choice fell on a wall of steel, so would the job generate large amounts of american jobs, writes the newspaper. In the summer introduced united STATES 25 per cent customs duties on import of steel and aluminum from the EUROPEAN union, Canada and Mexico as steps to ensure more of the country's jobs.

But the customs have also increased fears of a trade war between the united STATES and their allies.

the Statements came after the president himself had invited leaders from both political parties to a meeting in The white house. The theme was again grensemuren, which Trump thinks are absolutely necessary to stop the narkotikainnførsel and illegal immigration from Mexico to the united STATES.

the Democratic leader in the house of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, is one of them that has gone hard out against Trumps the desire for a grensemur. Also this week, she came with the statements that confirm the distance between the parties in the negotiations.

We do not build a wall. It has nothing to do with politics. It is an old fashioned way of thinking and will be immoral. It is also not cost effective, " said Pelosi earlier this week.

With it, there is no sign that the Democrats-the leader and Trump has approached the agreement since they met on live TV from The oval office in the middle of December. The situation that unfolded on the screen, was by several american media referred to as the year's most special TV moment.

You will not win this. And the fact is that you don't have the votes you need, " said Pelosi at the time, and directed the comment towards Trump and his lack of support from the Democrats in the senate when it comes to milliardbevilgninger to the wall.

- Very common "trumpsk"

the united STATES expert and a postdoctor at University of Bergen, Hilmar Mjelde, says to Dagbladet that it is not inconceivable that Trump is going to use extreme measures to declare national crisis in order to achieve his desire. He explains that the president basically has the legal three types of power: power explicitly granted by the constitution, the power given by Congress, and the implied power of the president(e) reading out from the constitution.

- It seems likely that the jurists of his will find the legal framework during the last two types of power. Nevertheless, it will certainly be taken into the courts of the Democrats, " says Mjelde.

He adds, however, that the sensational statements is a very common "trumpsk" forhandlingstaktikk.

- So the threat to declare a crisis can also just be a bargaining position. He often goes on the offensive, but then moderates, he explains Mjelde.

Where the president will take the money from, if he forces through the construction of the grensemuren, according to the united STATES-the expert is not so easy to say. There is also no guarantee that Trump will actually be able to find the funds to finance the wall, you must believe Mjelde, emphasizing that it is the Congress that is sitting on the pocketbook.

Trump that the military should punge out of Mexico-the wall

- I give him the best odds to get the wall built if he manages to come to a compromise with the Democrats. The amount of money it is to talk about is in itself not large, in relation to government finances under one. Skattekuttene republicans passed in 2017 is a much bigger problem for government finances, due to lost tax revenues, " he says.

the Expert thinks, incidentally, that the president's "shutdown" can be long-lasting. He points out that the u.s. state apparatus is very fragmented in the departments and specific programs, which makes effects yet is quite isolated.

But this, of course, already has serious consequences for those who do not receive salary. Nevertheless, I believe this will resolve itself when the popular frustration and discontent are becoming more audible. When will kongresspolitikerne which is in direct contact with the voters to know a completely different pressure, " says Mjelde.
