    Can’t Trump just issue an executive order saying there’s no more elections, or that Democrats are a terrorist organization and just like, not let any democrats win at all? Judges can’t stop his executive orders anymore… he could just abolish congress at a whim.

      States hold elections. Sure he can try to send the military, but this is nationwide Bloody Kansas going into US Civil War 2.0. Expect the democrats who live in DC to just storm the white house if they start cancelling elections.

      More likely they’d to the Turkey route, and eventually the Russia method. Sham elections are better than cancelling elections (for those in power).
