All the people that have the ability to prevent him from ratfucking the election have resigned or been fired. The media needs to make a bigger deal out of this.
Since when have we been able to rely on the law to stop his insane corruption? When?!
“Trump has no (Legal) power to do…”
Annnnnnd he did it. Laws are for other people not this administration :(
He hasn’t yet. Elections are run by the states, which have their own executive power. State officials dont have to obey, particularly in the big vote-by-mail states in the west
To bad all the red states will follow whatever order Trump gives.
Texas just got finished deep-sixing their liberals, as per the demented rapist.
I would consider his stacking of courts, and those courts making decisions on electoral cases, to be impacting elections.
Nah states rights are a sham. Eventually, federal courts decide what a states rights are, and federal courts are stacked.
See: Gore v. Bush. I think future historians will mark that case as the official start of humanity’s descent. Like shooting Franz Ferdinand.
“powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution” has several convenient loopholes, such as the commerce clause. Eventually almost everything is inter-state trade.
There’s a difference between power and legal power. Unfortunately legal power doesn’t really seem to matter. Power, however, does.
Laws have never stopped him before.
Chaos that the article states aside, overt interference with elections is a slightly different type of crisis than the rest for this admin. If he pretended he could suspend any election it’s putting the states on the offensive in a way that the other unconstitutional stuff doesn’t.
“Prove that the president can’t” becomes “stop us from electing someone else”. It’s obviously not out of the realm of possibility to suppress them by force, but enacting that across multiple states all at once is a tall order.
Voting is a very diffuse process, and states are basically only beholden to their own constitutions. That is to say, they can change their own rules as much as Trump can.
Since Trump has decided that no US laws apply to him, nor does the Constitution, and the Supreme Court tends to back him up, it is strange that Americans think that they have any legal rights. The law now exists only to further Trumps personal wishes.
States have executive power too…and they’re the ones who run elections. So they can just say no.
It’ll be another Colorado.
Release the Trump/Epstein files
How much can be " legally" screw with the USPS?
