If Trump Declares An Emergency Five Days Out, Who Actually Stops Him?
Kinzinger's concern matches Hawk's. Not whether it would be legal, since the Constitution gives the president no role in elections and states and counties run them, but whether courts could move fast enough if it happened days before voting, and what enforcement would look like after an order issued.
The political picture explains the temptation. Approval at record lows, a wide primary turnout gap, and a chunk of Republican voters who only show up when Trump is on the ballot.
Register, and have a plan to vote.
