If he gets reelected, will Donald I ever step down?

If you really believe that, it means he controls your mind.

If you don't really believe it, well... I suspect that you don't really believe it.

Oh? He is the C&C of our military. And Trump & his toadies are good at conjuring up conspiracies to occupy the FBI.

He may be the Commander-in-Chief, but the military takes an oath to the -Constitution- and not to the President. That is what is stopping such a nightmare scenario like what the OP describes from happening.

And he's constantly pissing the military off, attacking McCain and such. I've always been happy about that.

The military are not our national police. I think the law about that is called Posse Comitatus.

The military does not have to arrest Trump; they simply need to escort him out of the White House.

Specifically, this is the law:
“Whoever, except in cases and under circumstances expressly authorized by the Constitution or Act of Congress, willfully uses any part of the Army or the Air Force as a posse comitatus or otherwise to execute the laws shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than two years, or both.”

First, I believe that if Trump were to refuse to leave, he would be something akin an enemy combatant. Second, they are protecting the Constitution. Third, if you wanted to be -really- sure about it, Congress has the power to suppress an insurrection. So, it would need to grant the military what essentially amounts to an Authorization of Military Force (AUMF).

The Posse Comitatus Act Explained

The law generally prevents the president from using the military as a domestic police force.
www.brennancenter.org www.brennancenter.org

The Posse Comitatus Act bars federal troops from participating in civilian law enforcement except when expressly authorized by law. This 143-year-old law embodies an American tradition that sees military interference in civilian affairs as a threat to both democracy and personal liberty. However, recent events have revealed dangerous gaps in the law’s coverage that Congress must address.

Utter nonsense.

Not utter nonsense, but I disagree with the OP. I think Trump would see his election as: 1- vindication of his “innocence”; 2- an opportunity to pardon himself; 3- a chance to get vengeance on his perceived enemies; 4- not much more.

Other than reinstating Andrew Jackson’s “Spoils System,” Trump has no policy proposals of any substance, which realty will hopefully emerge in the debates, should he attend any.

Of course not. No President can.

Mycroft, Trump said THIS and YOU said you agreed:

Massive and widespread fraud and deception DOES allow for the termination of all rules, regulations and articles in the Constitution.
Click to expand...
So, if Trump decides that there was widespread fraud in the 2028 presidential election, would he be justified in terminating the Constitution as you have suggested and remaining in office "until it is all straightened out?"


 
Trump will never get reelected
His corporations, family and himself will be barred from any real estate dealings in New York. Does that mean he has to sell those holdings. They will also have to pay fines and back taxes.
Trump is going to prison along with his minions.
Only question is does he do his prison time in Georgia first or federal prison first.

Should remind you of the Enabling Act of 1933 in Germany. One man takes over control of the entire country & orders by decree.

No.

Just confirmation that he has the support of the American people.

Sure. If necessary.

Lawfare should not be able to win.

Not vengeance. Justice and the destruction of the corruption in our federal government.

You STILL don't understand what he said. You only know what the spinners say he said.

Use your brain...not your bias.

I don't believe Trump has any interest in actually -running- the country. He wants to -win elections-. As such, I don't see him becoming a dictator -unless- he does a stupid thing, like not ruling at all and instead having an election every month or something.

Well, I don't even know that Trump said that since I haven't come across the quote except for from you. So what did he mean?
