Sort of scary for any President to have this sort of unlimited power to arrest any one he felt was going against him.
Sort of like communism.
Roger Stone Calls For Trump To '''Declare Martial Law''' To Seize Power If He Loses

Oh no! Somebody said something bad! :lol:
The results will only be legitimate if the “real winner” — Trump — takes office, regardless of what the votes say,
To safeguard Trump’s position, Stone called for federal authorities to seize ballots in Nevada, for FBI agents to physically block certain voters from casting their ballots, and for Trump to use his powers for widespread arrests to solidify his power, Media Matters first reported.Stone demanded that “the ballots in Nevada on election night should be seized by federal marshals” and not counted, claiming with absolutely no evidence that “they are completely corrupted.”
Under martial law and the Insurrection Act, Trump will have “the authority” to arrest Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Apple CEO Tim Cook, “the Clintons” and “anybody else who can be proven to be involved in illegal activity,” Stone said. He also called for the immediate arrest of former defense secretary James Mattis for “sedition,” apparently because he feared Trump was unfit for office, according to Washington Post journalist’s to Bob Woodward’s upcoming book, “Rage.”
In addition, Stone warned, journalist also risk arrest. “If the Daily Beast is involved in provably seditious ... acts” in a new Trump future, their “entire staff can be taken into custody and their office can be shut down.” “They want to play war, this is war,” he added.
While such off-the-rail suggestions could easily be shrugged off from most, Stone is a high-profile friend of the president and has his ear, critics fear. Harvard law professor and Constitutional expert Laurence Tribe warned that Stone’s “advocacy of totalitarian takeover by Trump has to be taken seriously.”
There is no possibility of anything like that actually happening (and I have the strangest feeling that he didn't actually say what you claimed he said), but it sure would be nice if it did.

What a repugnant statement. Well done.
You can tell something is good when it offends all the right people.

I am listening to an interview of Roger Stone as I post this. He said NOTHING like what the OPer claims.
Is "the google" down, or broken? Stone's 9/10/20 incoherent anti constitutional rant, as described in this thread's OP,
is here, @ 1:12:50 . Some of you reasonably owe the author of this thread a sincere apology (sure...when donkeys fly!)
Yep, like racist right-wingers get offended when players show solidarity against the murdering of black people by taking a knee during the National Anthem.
I know exactly what you mean!
I'm not going to watch a 2 1/2 hour video. I would be fully support the US Senate investigating Stone's allegations.

That would be an illegal order and an immoral order so it would be rejected by the chiefs and commanders across the active duty armed forces who would advise Trump to withdraw the order or to modify it to be entirely consistent with the Constitution and the oath of the Potus.

....Stone: @ 1:19:20, "the ballots in Nevada on election night should be seized by federal marshalls..."
Why would you oppose that? I'd like to see all mail in ballots taken control of by federal marshals.
Try, try hard, to find ANY scandal - ever - against US Marshals. Bet you can't. There should be police from NON PARTISAN DEPARTMENTS (meaning not sheriffs or city police) at every polling place and that they have constant control of ballot security.
