He is building the excuse he will use to declare Martial law the last year he is in office keep from having another election.
This is what he meant when he said "You will never need to vote again"
Here we are and yet 93.7% of people will keep denying it as they watch everything this country worked for burn to the ground.
I would not be surprised if trump ordered all Whitehouse bathrooms to use Constitution toilet paper since he shits all over our constitution daily anyway.
*Martial law...
Marshall's law
Still true
i think you mean Martial Law. only matter of time, things like variations of sha'ria law will be instituted.
There is no mechanism by which to cancel elections in the United States, even under martial law. We've had them during every major conflict in our history, including the first Civil War, we'll continue to have them, even if only in blue and purple states—even if we have to risk our lives for it. Remember, elections are the purview of the states, the only way he takes them away is if they give them away.
"He's going to declare martial law to cancel elections" is misinformation. Actually, no. No more benefit of the doubt. At this point it's disinformation. Please stop spreading it.
hes installing election deniers to manage the eleciton infrastructure.
That's an entirely separate issue.
No. It isn't.
Trump's schtick is to do things he's not allowed to do according to precedent. Domestic terrorism can't be prosecuted. He declares antifa domestic terrorists and promises to prosecute them and everyone who supports them. The US Military cannot be deployed on US territory. He does so anyway. Presidents can't get rich off the office while they're in the office. He's getting and has gotten stupid rich off of his office. And Presidents are not above the law, but with cover from his hand-picked supreme court, he is. What makes you think he won't deploy the military against Blue States trying to have elections and arrest anyone sent to remove him? Let's stop giving him cover and prepare for the worst, even as we hope for the best. That away, if he gets thrashed next year in the Midterms and then shown the door in 2028 (to both him and his hand-picked successor if he respects the 22nd Amendment....which is itself not a given), we can sigh a sigh of relief, but if he suspends elections, we're ready to fight him that day instead of taking a year and a half to gear up.
You do realize that Trump is a wuss, right? Again, the only way he can cancel elections is if the states allow him to. They won't. And when they refuse, he'll threaten to send the military and then wuss out like he always does. He has no mechanism for cancelling elections, and he doesn't have the stones to take them by force.
