    Here’s a very scary thought…

    Scary! But I think he will also use martial law. He has been setting up his own “police” for years.




    Here’s a very scary thought… no, nightmare!

    I had to take my vehicle to the mechanic the other day for service.
    The Service Manager, Pete, gave me a ride home and on the way he told
    me his theory about the upcoming election and the next four years of
    U.S. government.
    At first I thought it a bit far fetched. But as I listened to him it
    began to make sense, scary sense....
    “I believe that Hillary Clinton will win the election in November,”
    Pete began. “Then, sometime between November and January, Hillary will
    be indicted. The IRS is now investigating the Clinton Foundation and
    the whole e-mail thing isn’t over yet.”
    “Once under indictment she won’t be able to assume the Office of the
    President in January. Tim Kaine, who will not actually be the Vice
    President because neither he nor Hillary have been inaugurated, cannot
    assume the Presidency.”
    “The Speaker of the House can’t move up to it because there is already
    a sitting President and Vice President. So President Obama, in an
    Executive Order citing “emergency situation,” gives himself another
    four years in office is the only way possible.”
    Pete believes Obama has been planning this for a while now, knowing he
    has enough on Hillary to indict her. Had the Attorney General indicted
    her based on evidence from the FBI this plan wouldn’t have worked
    because the DNC would have quickly come up with another candidate
    If you think about it, it’s not that outrageous. Many people on the
    left, including the President, want Obama to stay another four years.
    The law prohibits him from being re-elected so the only ways he can do
    it is by declaring martial law and suspending the election (which
    would be a very negative thing for the country) or to declare himself
    still President because the elected candidate cannot assume her
    duties.
    The latter makes more sense and is actually more feasible. And since
    it’s never been done before, it would set a precedent that would be
    difficult to challenge.
    Of course, if Trump wins the election none of this is going to happen.
    But what if Pete is correct? Four more years of Obama and a mostly
    useless Republican House and Senate would give Obama the time he needs
    to continue destroying changing the country to fit his stated goals.
    I thanked Pete for the ride home – and for messing up my day. Now I’ve
    got more things to worry about!

    I believe that constitutionally once the election is done it sets up the process to follow if anything happens to the President-elect. If Clinton were not able to assume office then the person elected for VP would assume the office of President. Not sure how a new VP would be found but I would think another election would be required. This is found in the 20th Amendment to the Constitution, section 3.

    Far-fetched or not, it is indeed scary.

    Or the fbi could cry that the Russians hacked the vote and thusly 0bama stays in office.
    Until a new "election" or martial law or whatever runs out.

    Scary? Yes. But so is an invasion by hostile space aliens.

    That scenario is very very far fetched. The VP elect IS the president. The swearing in is just a formality.

    I see all kinds of scenarios leading to A) obummer staying in office or B) hitlery winning the election despite not having the votes, etc...

    If either of these things happen just what do you think will be the response of the American people? Or should I say a certain segment of the American people? The ones that ushered in Trump and the others that are equally fed-up with the corruption and lies?
