Remember he needs to be able to declare state of emergency so he can cancel elections.

No he doesn't. He'll make up whatever excuses he wants to justify his actions like he did with invading Venezuela. Don't let excuses like this stop you from fighting for your democracy.

I’m not suggesting to stop fighting. For that, they needed to have started fighting in the first place. All I’m seeing is people going to work, and peaceful protesting. The enemy is armed…

E pluribus unum, camarada - Can't declare shit if the government folds under proletariat pressure. Tear it down and build a better tomorrow.

There's no provision for cancelling elections in the US under any circumstances. He cannot, in any way legally, suspend elections.

legally

Half the things he's done haven't been legal. He doesn't give a shit.

So the comment

Remember he needs

is false. Thanks for agreeing.

If he wants to do that he will regardless of our actions.

[–] kingofras@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

True, but he needs to declare a state of emergency for more than just that.

People - esp in US - need to read up on Hitler’s timeline.

Things will go very fast now. By the end of the year he will have abolished the democratic party as a domestic terrorist organisation.

The complete lack of any pushback on him breaking his own Epstein law and him kidnapping a foreign head of state will only fuel him up more.
