Michael Flynn , President Donald Trumps former national security adviser who was pardoned by the president last week for lying during the Russia investigation, wants Trump to declare martial law and temporarily suspend the Constitution until a new election is held.
Flynn, who had been awaiting sentencing for lying to the FBI about his Russian contacts before Trumps pardon, on Tuesday retweeted a news release from a right-wing Ohio group called We The People Convention asking the president to declare martial law so troops can supervise a do-over of the 2020 election.
Flynn tagged many conservative celebs in his post and added: Freedom never kneels except for God.

The news release cites massive, planned, illegal election fraud carried out by Democrats . Trump lost the election handily to President-elect Joe Biden and no widespread fraud has been found.
If the president doesnt declare martial law, the statement retweeted by Flynn warns, we will also have no other choice but to take matters into our own hands and defend our rights on our own.

So, now we have moved on the constitutional coup stage of right-wing madness. Michael Flynn and Sidney Powell have started talking about suspending the constitution (the one the right-wing has been pretending to love my whole life) and declaring martial law. They're not kidding.
