Anonymous Coward User ID: 72074140 United States 10/10/2016 12:45 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Somehow, someway Trump will be prevented from continuing in the election. It may be as simple as the RNC dumping him which would then preclude him from running as a third-party candidate because deadlines for him to appear on the ballot in all 50 states would have passed. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 72319442 Then, Hillary will have a major "medical" incident that will prevent her from continuing. Yes, there are rules for what happens within the parties if a candidate drops out for whatever reason but in the confusion of both candidates leaving the race at the last moments, Obama will issue yet another of his executive orders. In it, he will declare a national emergency -- the magic key he needs to unlock a plethora of special powers that, among other things, eliminate Congress and the Sumpreme Court as the other branches of government. With these powers, he will become a dictator practically overnight. And no, the military won't stop him. Many have thought his firing of top brass over the years was about weakening the military against the Islamic threat but that's not what it was about. He simply wanted to put in his own puppets for exactly this moment. COMPLETELY WRONG. 1) There are no provisions within the RNC Rules for them to "dump" a candidate. They can only replace a candidate who "quits or resigns" from the race. 2) If Hillary were to suffer a major medical problem making it impossible for her to continue -- or if the same happened to any candidate -- there are rules in both political parties as to exactly how that is handled. NO ELECTION IS HALTED over the death of any candidate -- ever. 3) Elections are a function of STATES, not the federal government. Neither Congress or Obama has any power whatsoever to stop any state election. So your scenario is totally wrong on every count. You would do well to educate yourself about our election system before you go spewing things like this in the future. What you described cannot take place. The elections will take place, on schedule. Period. |
