Trump: "I didn't need to do this"
Then I guess it's not much of an emergency, is it?

Trump rambled a reply, claiming he got more money than he knew what to do with for border security but not enough for the wall. But then he noted that he could get more for the wall over time, if he wanted.
“I could do the wall over a longer period of time,” he said. “I didn’t need to do this, but I’d rather do it much faster.”
Legal experts immediately pointed out that this claim undercuts the basis for Trump’s emergency declaration.
