A president can’t just declare martial law.
I know
I know.
But what’s that thing they CAN do about deploying the military and then informing Congress Leaders a few days later?
Gotta wait for the leftists to start the process of violent rebellion and they are always over budget and behind schedule...
Bless your heart Oscar ... I wish you well my FRiend. Hang in there.
I’ll submit
DC Baseball field attack,
Occupy Wall Street defecations on police cars
MS-13 violence,
Injuries to people simply attending political rallies
Vandalism to property of people on the right,
The Kate Steinles of the country
for your consideration as a start
It’s my effort for the opening kickoff. I’m planning to ‘hang in there’ for the full 60 minutes if necessary.
Very few Americans want the extreme and often unconstitutional measures you’re advocating.
Let me guess...you believe the Q stuff?
Relatively few colonists wanted the American Revolution, either
I haven’t completed my family tree yet, but I suspect that “Q” is a relative. :>)
It’s stupid. Martial law is a ridiculous measure
Trump has it right. Build the wall. Enforce the laws on the books
That is for wars on foreign soil
Go read about posse commitatus
Martial law is never a good thing. It means everything has broken down
“”Martial law is never a good thing. It means everything has broken down””
You are SO RIGHT!
(everything has broken down)
and
Re your previous reply about building the wall:
The only way I see it getting built is extra-legislatively. i.e. the military will have to do it probably as part of an invasion repelling action.
The last statement may prove to be true
The blue states are in open rebellion. Our corrupt stasi state , corrupt courts, fakestream media and both parties are too...
It’s not a question of if but when Trump has to call out the military.

“”Sooner” may be preferable to ‘later’
By the way, where ARE those several billion ‘bullets’ that we the people purchased for ‘our’ government a few years ago??

I agree. I predicted Trump would have to declare martial law when all the antifa violence was going down...The lawlessness is only getting worse. If he doesn’t do it the people will have to and that’s never pretty.
No need for martial law at this time. Congress can dust off the 1867-68 Reconstruction Act. It involves declaring specific states in insurrection. That’s followed by appointing a military governor along with necessary troops.
The state legislature is locked down and, using a carrot or stick approach, the legislators are urged to pass specific laws that will bring the state back into legal and constitutional balance. There’s a lot more involved in the act, so consider this a brief synopsis.
