Trump's last card to play is to declare martial law and suspend Presidential succession.

[Girard442]

No one can know, probably not even him, if he will play it. The possibility is terrifying.

1. I fully expect him to try it.

Possibly on the 17th when they are expecting large crowds in DC.

[CentralMass]

2. If I have learned anything here, it is a possibility.

[Ohio Joe]

3. No... That is not a card that exists

On the 20th, Biden will be President and Trump will be out. He cannot change the Constitution.

[BadDog40]

17. Are you sure?

I keep hearing various opinions about this, not sure if anyone really knows. Thom Hartmann sounded quite concerned about it on yesterdays show.

[Ohio Joe]

20. Yes, i'm sure...

There is no basis in fact for Trump to do such a thing. The Constitution is clear, Trump is gone on the 20th and Biden gets sworn in. There is nothing that will change it.

4. We have seen that he will do absolutely anything to stay in power.

I have to trust that our people have prepared for that. Just like a kid with his parents, Trumpy is always testing boundaries to see what he can get away with.

[duforsure]

5. He wants the rioting to escalate,

For this purpose to likely claim antifa is responsible to declare M L. He'll soon then suggest he has the power to postpone or delay , to prevent President Biden's swearing in. He'll leak it to the media first he's thinking about doing it first. That's his MO. Then he'll try doing it and claim he has powers he doesn't have. All while claiming they are trying to steal the county from him, and his followers, because he did so good.

6. He won't do it and it wouldn't work if i did.

This is what too much internet does.

[safeinOhio]

7. Too late

All but a few have turned on him in the last few days.

[sop]

8. Trump will try anything to stay in power, but like everything else he's done so far, it won't work.

9. Doesn't martial law require the backing of the military?

He won't get the military to go along with a declaration of martial law. Any orders would be illegal and shouldn't be followed. Is he planning on arresting the Joint Chiefs?

[obamanut2012]

14. Yes, for some reason people keep leaving that out

No martial law without military backing him.

[Turin_C3PO]

10. Even if he tried it

Biden would still take the oath of office and become President. The only way he could stay in power is if he had the Joint Chiefs of Staff, top military brass, the rank and file military and the Secret Service all in his pocket. And if he does have that then we’re already too far gone as a nation and would have to accept that a civil war would ensue. I don’t believe we’re near that point yet.

[duforsure]

11. Will he escalate the violence to then call putin for help?

With his hackers to be used against us?

[bearsfootball516]

12. He could try it, but I don't think anything would happen.

The leaders of the military have no respect for him. He'd give the orders and they simply wouldn't respond.

[NutmegYankee]

13. That's not a card in his deck.

Military has already said no, martial law doesn't work that way, and his term ends regardless on the 20th.

[Fullduplexxx]

15. He's a cornered rat he will do anything to save himself .. remember he wants to bE a dictator

[TwilightZone]

16. Why do people keeping posting stuff like this?

Trump doesn't have the power. Stop.

It wasn't true the last two hundred times it was posted, either.

[obamanut2012]

18. +1

[NurseJackie]

19. No such thing can happen.
