He's already declared like 30 emergencies.

Man he's really got this civil war speedrun record locked in.

Even if it were true that China stole the election, how is "something happened 6 years ago" an emergency? He won in 2024, so it can't be that effective anymore.

Another article acting like the executive has any power over elections. They portray this as a warning, but all they're doing is normalizing the idea.

And none of that actually gives him any power to do anything like that.

He is not the States.

The Washington Post thinks that traitorous conspiracies on the right are equivalent to protests and demonstrations by other types of "activist?"

The Chinese government hates the US and, if they interfered successfully, would have done so to get Trump into office, since that would cause the most damage.

Night of the long knives in 3...2..

so it's been leaked that they're "working on" an executive order to declare a national emergency?? for the midterms????? you don't have to "work on" declaring an emergency!??!?! it either IS an emergency or it ISN'T.

Dear heaven to think how dumb they think everyone is

wait, everyone might actually BE that dumb

I'm sat here in Europe watching Trump and his sycophants systematically dismantle American democracy and I'm honestly shocked that they're being allowed to do it.

I'm assuming it's the end if he's allowed to nullify the midterms as he intends, the final remaining shred of democracy will be well and truly gone.

What a sad way to see the "Land of the free" fall.

Someone please lock Dem leadership in a closet somewhere so people who care can deal with this.

The US regime has already committed so many serious crimes by now that I would be surprised if it did not try to establish a dictatorship. If it did not do so, all members of the government would risk prosecution as soon as they were voted out of office, even in a legal system as corrupt as that of the US.

The only thing holding a lot of Americans back from violence is the knowledge that that's exactly the excuse the regime wants to declare martial law and suspend elections. If they just jump to suspending fair elections anyway, then there will be nothing to stop the gloves from coming off. The billionaires and Congress creatures better run for their bunkers. Anybody that the people perceive as having a hand in getting us to this point, either through direct action or failure to react, won't be safe.

Prediction: None of this so called evidence will ever make an appearance in a court room.

Donald Trump is the national emergency.

we held elections during a literal civil war. What "emergency" could trump that with all our modern life improvements and.... checks notes. No civil war in America...

This does concern me frankly. Hopefully its all just his usual limpdick saber rattling. The problem is, if something like this does happen, at this point I don't trust anybody to stop it. Democrats are too busy playing theater and bending the knee to their corporate overlords to oppose anything Trump does at this point past their usual finger wagging and "almost maybe going to send a sternly worded letter at some point" responses. And if the Supreme Court doesn't give him the nod to do this he can just, you know, ignore them. Not like he's faced consequences for that the past... ever.

The Constitution is extremely clear that elections are the responsibility of the states, and we just saw the Supreme Court back the Constitution against him.

He tried to use the "Emergency" excuse to justify his tariffs, and SCOTUS didn't buy it. They aren't going to buy this emergency either.

States should declare emergencies first and protect themselves from the fed. Elections are handled by each state, not the government.

His MO has been to use "emergency" as a power grab even when nothing gives him any powers over these issues even if he claims an emergency.

Fuck you, you fucking orange turd. If everything is an emergency, then nothing is.

If this happens and civil war doesn't break out than I fear good people will have lost.

By Wikipedias count there are presently 51 on-going national emergencies in USA, 19 of them have been declared by Trump.

The oldest still active one was made by Carter in 1979, it's a sanction on Iran.

Are we in the greatest American period ever, as claimed during his long-ass speech to the union, or are we in a national emergency? It can't be both.

we have a situation where the president is aware that there are foreign interests that are interfering in our election processes

Of course he is, he benefitted from it. America ain't coming back until the people take it back, and that's gonna be done the hard way.

If he starts the civil war by ending our vote, do we get to start hitting Ice agents with our cars?

Also make sure to be going 40 or over or they get back up.
