      Today Trump claimed he will seize large swaths of land from private citizens at gunpoint and declare a “state of emergency” to build a wall without Congressional approval. In the face of tyranny, Republicans are outraged ... by a freshman Member of Congress using profanity.

      There is no “emergency” that could lawfully permit a president to suspend elections or remain in power if another leader is elected.

          He could also declare himself King of no one stops him. Technically, he *can* do anything Congress lets him get away with. We shouldn't consider ourselves protected by our laws. The law only matters if it's enforced.

          I fear what may happen if he tries this but I think we all have an idea “deep down in places we don’t talk about at parties.”

          What if Donald prevents the 2020 election? Does he have any power to do that? Does McConnell? SCOTUS?

          Elections are run on the state level. He can’t cancel Illinois’ elections, or any others.

          Agreed. But @gop Governors or @gop SoS could impede the election just as they affected results in 2016 & 2018

          We saw that when Giuliani wanted to stay in after 9/11. Most people don’t remember he was voted OUT because he still uses that “America’s Mayor” moniker.

          But as we've seen, so long as a plurality of those in positions of power--Congress, judges, military, etc.--go along with unlawful conduct by an executive, the executive will get away with that unlawful conduct.
