And now, coming to us from the White House, President Trump, rigging the next election.
Pro-democracy experts suspect with good reason that President Trump will rig the upcoming elections. I agree with their consensus. I expect to see this special address from the Oval Office sooner than later:
And now, coming to us from the White House, President Trump.
“Good evening, my fellow patriots. I have seen enough to believe our country is in great danger. With our election weeks away our cities are riddled with crime, corruption and disorder. Protests have turned violent in cities like Chicago, New York City, Portland, Seattle and Los Angeles.
There is no time for Congressional approval. Because of the dire threat this disorder and chaos poses to the national sovereignty of the United States I am claiming emergency powers to protect our federal elections going forward.
Tonight I am declaring my tenth national emergency.
Despite objections from some states led by democrats I am overriding the Constitutional designation that states alone have control over elections. This is too important a national emergency to leave to the states. Especially the corrupt Democrat states. They hate America.
Where we find evidence of fraud in these cities and states we will be seizing voting machines.
We will continue our efforts to dismantle the Democrat’s treasonous efforts to rig the election by the democrats using the hoax of “promoting election security”.
I am ordering U.S. troops, national guard units and ICE officers to patrol near polling places to secure a peaceful turnout. Since the Supreme Court ruled my administration can use racial profiling we will be using our military at our polling places to assist our ICE agents in asking all latinos for proper papers. Any illegal attempting to vote for democrats will be arrested and deported.
Fortunately I have appointed pro-democracy MAGA patriots to state elections boards who will insure these elections are free and fair.
Some say I’m a fascist. I’m a dictator. Nothing could be farther from the truth. If that were true would a dictator respect the Constitution like me? Everything I have done is within the law.My Supreme Court has ruled my Presidential authority is Constitutional. The Courts showed that when I tried to overturn the 2020 election I was using a constitutional procedure.
I have no choice but to use my Constitutional powers to crush the evil enemies of freedom and democracy and to make America great again. Let’s have a safe, secure, free and fair election.
Good night and God bless America.
“There’s no law, there's just power… The goal is to stay in power.”

I enthusiastically recommend “Letters from an American”. I depend on the historical perspective of Heather Cox Richardson to keep me contextually informed. Much of this “speech” was derived from the following column, which cites the Nazi philosophical influence on members of Team Trump working to keep him in office for perpetuity.

Steven Miller has been following the Nazi playbook EVERY DAMN STEP so far... Which is why some comparisons to yesterday's Utah shooting are to the murder in Paris that became the "justification" spawning Kristallnacht. Any excuse, ANY excuse this regime can get to declare martial law they will take. That is why all our protests and "concert festivals" and actions MUST remain nonviolent.
And on that note... If you live in CD 7, PLEASE make sure you vote in the September 23 election. It very well could be the last, if Fitz's vision becomes reality.
Thank you for outlining an all-together too possible scenario. I read Heather Cox Richardson's Substack column every chance I get. Her insight and historical perspective are invaluable. But your magic "touch" is the icing on the cake!
