I don't care whether she is locked up or not, just correcting the "him" from the post above. Not worried about Amanda, and neither, I suspect are Virginians. Doubt she has a chance on the gubernatorial run. Also not worried about nut-ball trump trying to follow her advice. Military would not support that illegal order from the defeated president.arent you a good little fascist for wanting to jail your political rivals,,,Lock "her" up. state Senatory Amanda Chase, VA Gubernatorial wannabe. If this is what the republicans have in Virginia, it is no surprise they are going Democrat.Sedition.This is complete insanity! What has happened to our country? People like this call themselves patriots, while at the same time engaging in dagerous rhetoric the threatens the very foundation of our republic. It is dangerous and irresponsible and suborns the idea that resorting to force is ok when you don't like the outcome of an election. They are not patriots. They are traitors and terrorists
GOP gubernatorial candidate in Virginia calls on Trump to declare martial law (msn.com)
The U.S. has never declared martial law, which gives the military broad powers in a time of crisis, at the federal level. But it has been used in some instances at state and local levels during disasters or times of unrest, such as in Hawaii following the attack on Pearl Harbor.
It's a legal grey area and any effort by Trump to use the military to overturn the election results would be immediately thwarted by Congress or the Supreme Court.
Trump's legal challenges to the election have been broadly dismissed by the courts, including the Supreme Court. The president and his campaign have not been able to prove the wild accusations they've made on social media and cable news.
Lock him up.
