TOSK 640 Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 I would love to see it live on TV Biden 'absolutely convinced' military would escort Trump from White House if he loses and refuses to leave (CNN)Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden sounded an alarm Wednesday about GOP moves to limit voting access, saying his "single greatest concern" is that President Donald Trump will "try to steal this election." But, the former vice president said, he is "absolutely convinced" the military would escort Trump from the White House if he loses the election but refuses to leave office. Asked by Trevor Noah on "The Daily Show" if he's ever considered what would happen if Trump would not leave the White House if he loses, Biden responded, "Yes, I have." https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/11/politics/joe-biden-donald-trump-military-white-house/index.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adakam 2 Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Ive seen this idea that he wouldnt leave being floated around for a while. The minute his term is up, he is no longer potus, why would he be able to stay inside and why would anyone keep following his orders? Just throw him on a meat grinder and feed him to the bugs -_- Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Trump were inclined to overstay his term, the levers of power work in favor of removal. Because the president immediately and automatically loses his constitutional authority upon expiration of his term or after removal through impeachment, he would lack the power to direct the U.S. Secret Service or other federal agents to protect him. He would likewise lose his power, as the commander in chief of the armed forces, to order a military response to defend him. In fact, the newly minted president would possess those presidential powers. If necessary, the successor could direct federal agents to forcibly remove Trump from the White House. Now a private citizen, Trump would no longer be immune from criminal prosecution, and could be arrested and charged with trespassing in the White House. While even former presidents enjoy Secret Service protection, agents presumably would not follow an illegal order to protect one from removal from office. https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2020/02/what-if-he-wont-go/606259/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could refuse to leave but it wouldn't last an hour the authorities would escort him out of the White House. I don't think it'll be a problem. His fragile ego couldn't handle literally being dragged out of the White House and embarrassed like that so he'll leave but not before kicking up some sh*t about "IT WAS RIGGED! PHONY ELECTION! ANTIFA! MEXICANS! FRAUD! P*SSY! EMAILS! MY AFRICAN AMERICANS!" etc. I can't wait to see it Whimsical bitch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galactic Mess 1,393 Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 If they didn't it would be a coup, right? Can't imagine that happening in America. It's the longest lasting democracy in the world with no authoritarian interruptions, so far as I know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
