The state of emergency which US President Donald Trump declared on the Mexican border has provoked a negative reaction by all democrats, according to ABC News.

“Trump’s inability to follow through on a campaign promise is not a national emergency,” Senator Cory Booker from New Jersey wrote on Twitter.

“An outrageous abuse of power,” tweeted Senator Kirsten Gillibrand from New York.

“Declaring a national emergency over this President's vanity project is ridiculous,” Senator Kamala Harris from California wrote in a tweet.

Democrats running for president have called on Trump to immediately cancel this state of emergency.
