Link at current time when she says: “As Donald and I conclude our time in the White House...”

I just now found that also.
and it made my heart drop

she called it her farewell message

As I understand it, martial law occurs with the stepping down of the President, the military takes control and holds a fair election, the new president is elected and sworn in.

So, that's a likely scenario here. And, as elections are to be fair, one doesn't state who will be the next president until a fair election is held. You let people vote, and wait for the decision.

I, along with General Flynn and many others, believe that President Trump will absolutely be sworn in as our next president.

And one where you won't have a certain group badgering the other to "accept the results of the election" in advance of the election itself.

I have my picture ID ready. Bring on the paper ballots and purple fingers. I will proudly vote for Trump again.

I can’t even begin to imagine the logistics of a repeat election, even a fair one. Boggles my mind... Do you really think that could happen?

President Lincoln demonstrated that martial law occurs without the president stepping down.

Proclamation 113—Declaring Martial Law and a Further Suspension of the Writ of Habeas Corpus in Kentucky

July 05, 1864

By the President of the United States of America

A Proclamation

[excerpt]

Now, therefore, I, Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws, do hereby declare that in my judgment the public safety especially requires that the suspension of the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus, so proclaimed in the said proclamation of the 15th of September, 1863, be made effectual and be duly enforced in and throughout the said State of Kentucky, and that martial law be for the present established therein. I do therefore hereby require of the military officers in the said State that the privileges of the writ of habeas corpus be effectually suspended within the said State, according to the aforesaid proclamation, and that martial law be established therein, to take effect from the date of this proclamation, the said suspension and establishment of martial law to continue until this proclamation shall be revoked or modified, but not beyond the period when the said rebellion shall have been suppressed or come to an end. And I do hereby require and command as well all military officers as all civil officers and authorities existing or found within the said State of Kentucky to take notice of this proclamation and to give full effect to the same.

The martial law herein proclaimed and the things in that respect herein ordered will not be deemed or taken to interfere with the holding of lawful elections, or with the proceedings of the constitutional legislature of Kentucky, or with the administration of justice in the courts of law existing therein between citizens of the United States in suits or proceedings which do not affect the military operations or the constituted authorities of the Government of the United States.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed

Done at the city of Washington, this 5th day of July, A. D. 1864, and of the Independence of the United States the eighty- ninth.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN.

By the President:

WILLIAM H. SEWARD,

Secretary of State.
