The left and the MSM seem to have a counterpunch to everything. Trump needs to land a political haymaker to pull this off, but he’s in very precarious waters. I trust he’ll do what’s best. We have to.

Martial Law is never limited.

By definition, martial law is a state of affairs that only exists when the courts cannot be in session. Are the courts in session?

The voting system would still be rigged by the Left.
We need separate countries.

When a foreign country is involved in subversive activities helped by US citizens involved in treasonous activity, then Trump has every right to do this.
Do you want CHINA running the US with the help of paid off, treasonous and greedy politicians who have negated your votes?

He can do this.
But it won’t go over well.

POTUS is our principal constitutional officer. And law enforcement principal.

It would also require an order to states on the conduct of the election.

The people most adversely affected by this would be Obama, Hillary, Brennan, Clapper, Soros...

Instead of that, how about this?

https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/alabama-abortion-law-boycott/2019/05/16/id/916372/

Some state officials moved to boycott Alabama for its abortion laws.

How about solid conservative states move to boycott MI, WI, PA, AZ until they get their elections house in order?

At first I thought this was crazy talk but after some consideration it way be the only way of having a fair and honest election. This is our nuclear option.

I’m suspicious of any group or individual that calls himself / itself “Tea Party.”

So many have grabbed the moniker for money-making purposes, then turned RINO or disappeared.

Who was the Texas Congressman who was the leader of one “Tea Party” group or another? Have we heard anything from him lately?

It’s the old “Badges? We don’t need no steenking badges!” route for me.

When the legislators, courts and/or Congress fail to do their duty under the 12th Amendment, you must be ready Mr. President to immediately declare a limited form of Martial Law, and temporarily suspend the Constitution and civilian control of these federal elections, for the sole purpose of having the military oversee a national re-vote.

Temporarily suspend the Constitution? No thanks.

What gets suspended? Fourth Amendment? Second Amendment, First Amendment?

Habeas corpus?

Insanity.

No. Martial law is not a solution... and do we think Biden wouldn’t “build” on that precedent?
