Interviewer: If the Senate never gets the SAVE Act done, you can declare a national emergency for elections. If you declare a national security emergency, they can't challenge it. If you do this, we will get a limit to mail in ballots-- Trump: Stranger things have happened. I'll leave... it at thatshow more

How grossly irresponsible for a network to allow it's host, or employee interviewing trump, to blatantly tell trump to practically cease our right to fair elections process. THIS is Russian TV stuff.

But there is no “national emergency” right? How did we manage 240 years of elections until this lying sack of dogshit came along?

Actually any attempt he makes on elections can be outright ignored regardless, because he has zero authority over them.

This wreaks of desperation. They are going to lose. They should just start planning their retirement with all the money they grifted.

To be clear, this has absolutely nothing to do with voter fraud. Trump has had dozens of chances to prove that there was fraud that caused him to lose in 2020. He can't, but he maintains the lie. This is about Republicans thinking that they tend to win when fewer people vote

Wayne Allyn Root knows as much about the Constitution as trump does (nothing). The Supreme Court citation he referenced makes no mention of his crazy conspiracy theory, plus the president has no authority to make unilateral decisions regarding elections.

Stranger things have definitely happened. I remember a certain trillionaire manipulating the last election

The man is dumb, but maybe not so stupid. Now that it's been "suggested" (no matter how illegal), the "...so it must be true!" MAGA people will start thinking January 6 all over again & he walks away clean because he never said anything. Brilliant dumbfuckery, to be sure.

Spouting nonsense and misinformation. This guy need to do some homework on how that went for Fox

Stranger things have never happened. An armed revolt should break out if this rat bastard tries it.

But the president doesn’t run the elections, the states do.

Democracy lawyers take note. The second Trump acts on this suggestion, put your lawsuit into the courts & include this idiot as well. Sue the hell out of this network for allowing this in the public discourse. It's time these folks pay through the nose. We don't need another J6!

Or you can run on ideas and issues instead of find creative ways to cheat

Illegal on its face but they are prepping, if this balloon floats, look for it to happen.

Not being able to pass anything isn’t just cause to ‘declare a national emergency’ you effing moron. However, you are entitled to your opinion no matter how stupid it is.

What bullshit. There is no federal law that gives the POTUS authority to suspend or cancel a national election simply by declaring a national emergency.

Trump has gone from "If I don't win, it's rigged" to "if I don't rig, we lose."

I'd just like to remind people that back in the day, Root was a crooked gambling tout selling advice on both sides of games. He wanted to guarantee that that half of his followers won and would pay plenty for his next set of picks.

SHARE THIS POST‼️ WILL YOU JUST PLEASE LISTEN TO US PRESIDENT TRUMP @POTUS @realDonaldTrump @StephenM @SecRubio @GenFlynn @mrddmia @elonmusk @RudyGiuliani @SidneyPowell1 JUST BLOODY WELL DO IT‼️ DECLARE A NATIONAL SECURITY EMERGENCY TO PASS THE SAVE AMERICA ACT‼️

If He Does this, I expect to see everyone in D.C. protesting until he reverses course, I expect everyone to vote. We have to stand together if and or when he does this.

Trump never complained when Obama or Biden was president. He only whines when he’s president. Maybe make Obama the Election Czar. Have him oversee the elections

Democrats don’t want voter ID because they use the lack of voter ID to cheat. It’s just a fact. Not even democrats think they can actually win elections

don't thinnk so

It's obvious & credible that a CIA report has declared the US is already under Authoritarian ruling

A whole new reason NOT to pass the so-called "Save Act".

If Democrat president had even mentioned canceling an election, he or she would have been impeached the same day.

This interviewer is a lunatic. Imagine seeing the president talking on screen to someone like this ten or twelve years ago. It wouldn't happen.

No. A president cannot simply declare a national emergency and thereby impose nationwide rules on voter ID, proof of citizenship for registration, or limits on mail-in ballots. Constitutional and statutory limits The U.S. Constitution’s Elections Clause (Article I, Section 4) gives state legislatures primary authority over the “Times, Places and Manner” of holding congressional elections. Congress may make or alter those regulations by law. The president has no independent constitutional power to set or rewrite those rules. The National Emergencies Act lets a president declare a national emergency and unlock specific powers that Congress has already authorized in advance (roughly 150 statutory authorities covering things like sanctions, troop deployments, or resource redirection). None of those authorities grants power to change election administration, impose voter identification requirements, restrict mail-in voting, or nationalize state-run elections. GROK

The courts will intervene… he has no emergency other than that he’s lost the country…. He’s a total disgrace and disaster

The man is already a walking crime spree. This Interviewer has no one but himselfs best interest at heart.

National security emergencies get challenged all the time, lol. This idjit needs to shut the fuck up.

He will do whatever he can to remain in office. Everyone that's not one of his sycophant cronies will breath a sigh of relief when he's gone.
