Does anyone really think Donald "the Felon' Trump won't hijack the midterm elections?
"Trump declines to rule out declaring a national security emergency to control the 2026 election"
"President Donald Trump in a new interview declined to rule out declaring a national security emergency as a means to try to assert more control over the 2026 midterm elections.
It’s merely the latest warning sign that Trump could try to mess with the election not just by baselessly claiming voter fraud and challenging the results afterward — as he did in 2020, leading to a violent riot at the US Capitol — but by trying to unilaterally take control before votes are cast.
In the interview, Wayne Allyn Root of Real America’s Voice pitched such a scenario to Trump. He suggested it as an alternative, given the Senate has failed to pass Trump’s coveted elections bill, known as the “SAVE America Act.”
“If they never get the SAVE America Act done, you have the right to declare a national security emergency for elections,” Root said. He added that “if you declare a national security emergency as the president of the United States, they can’t challenge it. It can only be overturned by a two-thirds vote by both houses of Congress. So if you do this in the next month, we will get photo ID, proof of citizenship (for voter registration) and a limit to mail-in ballots.”
It’s at this point that Trump cut Root off and coyly suggested such an option was indeed in play."
Who are you quoting? Fellow called "Esoteric"? Because it sure sounds like something he would come up with - an insinuation exaggerated beyond reason and without any real truth in what you are trying to promote.
It should have been obvious I was quoting Root and Trump, since they were named as the speakers. Guess you missed that. But I did forget to include the link, not that you would have looked at it.
Here is one of a multitude that reported on the story.

Perish the thought, he wouldn’t dare. He is already at the end of his rope in so many areas.
It is going to take decades to repair what Trump, the incompetent sexual predator broke in America - assuming we have a democracy left to repair.
Isn't amazing the lengths those with TDS will go to cover up the corrupting of their dear leader Trump?
