religion has no place in politics. anyone preaching religion and god in politics should be removed immediately. they are not acting in their own accord or on behalf of the people they represent. people voted them in, not some invisible deity they believe in.

point is, when are the trump supporters going to come out in protest of using the military to enforce a curfew and to turn guns on american citizens- the point is law enforcement is trigger happy vs POC and everyone knows this will be abused to the fullest.

everything i said was factually accurate though, trump supporters are mindless. you have no coherent strategy or thoughts - exactly like trump himself. trump is a genuine failure.

Martial law is defined as: 'the imposition of direct military control of normal civil functions or suspension of civil law by a government, especially in response to a temporary emergency where civil forces are overwhelmed, or in an occupied territory.'

After a quick google search, it appears martial law is predictably a murky subject in the US. It's been mostly deployed in the states at the command of state governors. More rarely by the federal government, most famously in Hawaii during WWII.

The SCOTUS doesn't appear to offer much guidance on the subject. Some argue that the POTUS has the authority to declare martial law, some think it should require an act of Congress. The Posse Comitatus Act appears to limit martial law, and the Insurrection Act appears to allow it with state governor cooperation.

I'd probably fall into the camp of requiring congressional approval, at the risk of slower reaction time and political grandstanding, just to add another check and balance. I don't think Trump declared martial law today, but his speech seemed to threaten it.
