Description:

Can President Trump Suspend the Elections? Does the president have the power to suspend the elections? The short answer: No. But while the law is clear, President Trump’s efforts to delay the elections, sow distrust in our democratic processes, and wreak havoc on the U.S. electoral process are already well underway.Will access to mail-in ballots (or lack thereof) impact voter turnout? Can Trump invoke martial law if he loses the election? What are the possible threats to our democracy come November? Sophie Dorf-Kamienny and Roxy Szal Can the President Suspend the Elections?The short answer: No. But while the law is clear, President Trump’s efforts to delay the elections, sow distrust in our democratic processes, and wreak havoc on the U.S. electoral process are already well underway.Host Michele Goodwin is joined by: Karen J. Greenberg, the director of the Center on National Security at Fordham Law and a permanent member of the Council on Foreign Relations, specializing in the intersection between national security policy, the rule of law and human rights; Prof. Rick Hasen, chancellor’s professor of law and political science at the University of California, Irvine; a nationally recognized expert in election law and campaign finance regulation; and a CNN election 2020 analyst; Rep. Mikie Sherrill represents New Jersey’s 11th Congressional District; and Prof. Stephen Vladeck, the A. Dalton Cross professor in law at the University of Texas School of Law and a nationally recognized expert on the federal courts, constitutional law, national security law and military justice. It Was Never About Saving Babies. It Was Always About Motherhood. There is perhaps no better (or eerier) reminder of the insidious, underlying idea that women are destined to be mothers than the nomination of Amy Coney Barrett to fill RBG’s spot on the Supreme Court.Barrett is not “the new face of feminism this is a repackaged misogyny guised behind a smiling mother—a mother that values this identity so much, she wants to create a world where giving birth is no longer a choice, but a legal mandate.
