Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

It's not a question of being allowed, he's broken so many laws in the past alone and got away with it heck is still doing those same things. Already he is denying legality of any law or prosecution that is currently blocking him and steps past...
It's a matter of who will dare to stop him once he is at that point: He has judges in his pocket. Part of the armed forces apparently are pro maga. Who or which branch will actually physically stop him once he declares his reign to continue? Ofcourse it will be under a lame excuse that it's good for the country, it is in unrest or at war right now so elections are bad hmmkay? So generally it'll be swallowed and shrugged off.
Any PERSON trying, or even complaining, risks being shot by henchmen or at the very least gets their and their family's lives destroyed.
Here and there there might be committees making a declaration what he's doing is illegal, but if Trump's team ignores it all or makes them go away, there is no oversight to stop him because no one single individual dares to stand in front.
As long as he has part of the judiciary system and a good chunk of armed folks to his defense one can sue and complain and he might show up in court to make a circus out of it but meanwhile will sit it all out on his throne.
