Republican Sen. Lamar Alexander implored President Trump to find other sources of border wall funding and avoid going forward with his declaration of a national emergency as the GOP braces for a tough vote

Alexander said doing so would mean there would not be a"dangerous precedent" of a president using the emergency declaration to go directly over the will of Congress, which in this case voted to deny him those border wall funds.
