The President declared the emergency himself.
I quote the 9th amendment.
"The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people."
What that means is the rights spelled out in the Bill of Rights are not the limits to the peoples rights. That other rights may be implied.
Such as the right not to be killed by a juice harp playing hick waving guns and flags, doing what ever he wants, during a global pandemic.
It is beginning to appear that there is no hope of a sane conversation with you. You've graduated from just making shit up that directly contradicts our Constitution, and claiming that our Constitution supports it, to directly quoting part of our Constitution in defense of a premise which directly contradicts the very part of the Constitution which you are quoting.
There is no rational nor honest way to read the Ninth Amendment as giving license for government to engage in corruption and tyranny that the Constitution explicitly forbids elsewhere. What the Ninth Amendment makes clear is the opposite of the meaning that you are trying to force on it; that the limits on government abuse are stricter than otherwise indicated, not less strict.
