Five weeks?
My scenario: Just as he did with the CR, he will demand of the Republicans in Congress a “clean” debt limit raise, with zero future limits or conditions. The Republicans will either totally cave and accede to this demand, or they will hold out and be blamed for pushing the USA over the “debt cliff.”
Obama then cuts off all entitlement payments. No SS, pensions, or indirect EBT payments (they are doled out by the states.)
Once the EBT payments stop, our cities will EXPLODE and Obama will have his “emergency” and will announce fiat rule by the National Emergencies Act.
As long as Obama/Jarrett etc believe that the MSM will cover his flanks and blame the Republicans for the chaos, what will stop him?
He gets to declare the “Tea Party terrorists” to be “enemies of the state,” and rule as a dictator. It’s win-win for Obama.
