Considering how bad the drug problem has gotten in so many cities, martial law would probably be a good thing.
But I dont think ANY president would ever do that, especially not the entire nation at the same time, for one, many people could no longer go to work, there would be strict curfews, military platoons out on patrols, etc
The court will refuse to step in with a state of emergency. Unlike Trump they understand the separations of power.
What are you saying? That SCOTUS won't step in or that no federal court will step in? If the latter then it will not be tied up in court past 2020 which is the point I was making. If the former then they absolutely will.
Illegal immigration has been falling for over a decade now:
"A Pew Research Center analysis of U.S. government data from 2016 has found that the U.S. illegal immigrant population has fallen to its lowest level in a decade. In 2007, the number of unauthorized immigrants living in the U.S. peaked at an estimated 12.2 million and by 2016, that fell to 10.7 million. The decline can be attributed to a sharp decrease in the number of Mexicans entering the U.S. without authorization."
Let's just ask the citizenship question on the Census and settle this once and for all.

My point is that Trump wins either way but the Supreme Court is not going to interfere. I can not speak on what every single lower court might do.
No, you misunderstood. Trump won fair and square. I was careful, however, not to say it was a fair election, because it wasn't.
Your side has used immigration policy to import tens of millions of voters to cancel out the votes of native Americans and for decades has used the mainstream media to warp voters' morals as well as their understanding of the world around them. Your side is guilty of permanent and profound election interference, and nothing could be sillier than talking about Russian election interference in 2016.
Show that there was illegal immigrants voting. Mueller is showing how Russia helped out Trump as well as Trump paying off previous trysts.

Under no circumstances would imposing martial law to address a drug problem be a good thing. What possible help would it be to solve the problem of drug addiction?
How anyone could think having the military policing our streets and enforcing strict curfews on the entire population to solve an ongoing societal problem such as drug abuse is mind-boggling.
I think the closest any president has come to declaring Martial Law, is Pres. Lincoln when he suspended the Writ of Habeas Corpus.
Pres. Lincoln got away with doing a LOT of full-on dictator things, and you see how that worked out for him.
Lincoln had the perfect situation. Anyone that would have countered him in court would have been from the South and as far as the South was concerned they were no longer a part of the country.
That is not the case today. Constitutional lawsuits would be filed all over.
This says he is simply going to announce he is seeking a compromise. Not sure yet how that would go over.
President Trump plans to use remarks from the Diplomatic Reception Room on Saturday afternoon to propose a notable immigration compromise, according to sources familiar with the speech.
