There is literally no constitutional or legal provision for a president to declare martial law.
All a president has is the Insurrection Act, and I would be shocked if it were not struck down almost immediately if invoked because people were actively voting or an election was lost.
Oh thank God! I rest easy knowing that it is not legal for the president to declare martial law. The law being reliably enforced, and the president being law-abiding, as things currently are. /s
You’re being downvoted, but I have a hard time believing that republicans will allow this. It would be catastrophically bad for their party and when it’s time for Trump to be gone, they will turn on him faster than a motor shaft.
You’re telling me that the “We the People” crowd is going to ok with martial law? The thing that conservatives have been fear mongering since Obama?

I don’t.

Do you remember January 6th? If they were going to turn against Trump, that would have been the time. Republicans love the idea of martial law being used against protestors and racial minorities.
They’ve been fine with everything else he’s done up til now. He literally launched an insurrection last time he lost and was still allowed back into power.
Do you also believe Trump will be president in 2029? I personally believe Republicans only use Trump to remain in power. Once he’s no longer useful to them, they will drop his ass.

I wouldn’t rule it out. He will remain useful until he’s gone for good. They’ve backed his every move so far and plenty of it was worth standing up to, but they didn’t. There’s no reason to think they’ll start being decent people now. They’re all too busy grifting his moronic base.

SCROTUS will allow it on loose pretenses. They’ll say that immigration is equivalent to war time espionage or something

Jan 6th? Where a bunch of dorks failed to storm a building and the second one of them was shot they took off? Oooooo such tough guys
