Majority Disapprove of Trump’s Emergency Declaration

A new HuffPost/YouGov survey finds a majority of Americans ― 55% ― disapprove of President Trump’s decision to declare a national emergency along the U.S.-Mexico border in order to pay for construction of a border wall. Just 37% approve.

The emergency declaration is significantly more unpopular in the poll than building the wall itself, of which 49% disapprove and 45% approve.
