Depends

Emergency as in "a coup could have literally happened and a mob of MAGA boomers could have taken control of the country" then no

Emergency as in massive embarrassment and loss of prestige abroad? Then definitely, and to the imperial mandarin class these are equally bad https://twitter.com/robert_mariani/status/1349510119390789632
Sums up these last 4 years tbh

The thing the mandarins care about is image, hence why none of them gave a shit about border camps or deportations under their darling, the impeccably corporate Obama

MAGA/Trump was basically the embarrassing rube uncle showing up to a fancy gala
Hence why them saying they can't wait to get back to brunch even though Biden is openly talking about doing shit that was fascism just yesterday (ie keeping the camps)

The image is fixed, their international embarrassment gone, that's all that counts, the real issue all along
