To utilize the military, Trump has to declare that a state of emergency exists, repeal posse comitatus, and suspend the U.S. Constitution.
Back on your meds.
All of these things were done during the Bush administration and every year, right after 9/11, whom ever is President, they use the excuse of the "terror war," to continue the State of Emergency.
It is renewed annually. I pay attention, watch and check to see if we return to constitutional government or if we still exist in a state of war and police state powers. Here are just a few, I have omitted some years for brevity.
George W. Bush: Proclamation 7463—Declaration of National Emergency by Reason of Certain Terrorist Attacks
Federal Register :: Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to Certain Terrorist Attacks
Message -- Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to Certain Terrorist Attacks
Notice -- Continuation of the National Emergency with Respect to Certain Terrorist Attacks
Federal Register :: Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to Certain Terrorist Attacks
Most folks don't know, but we have been, and are in a state of emergency since 9/11/01.
If this isn't renewed annually by the president, then Congress has to review it to see if a situation still exists to warrant a national emergency. If the president issues this order, it absolves Congress of the responsibility, and we are, in effect, in a state of Continuity of Government at any time.
(C.O.G.)
Thus, if he so desires, we will be ruled by
NSPD-51, and congress won't have a thing to say, because Americans are too stupid and too asleep to know what the hell has happened to their Republic.
