Can Trump be evicted from the White House?

Posted by https://salaamallah.com/ on Sat Nov 14 11:51:14 2020

Can Trump be evicted from the White House?
YAHOO NEWS TOP STORY

Donald Trump is still refusing to accept Joe Biden as the winner of U.S. election - even as his allegations of fraud have been met with skepticism from judges and legal analysts.

The United States has a long history of peaceful transfers of power.

So if Trump refuses to leave the White House, the country will enter uncharted waters.

Even in previous contentious elections, there has never been an all out refusal to concede.

For example, Al Gore accepted the Supreme Court’s ruling that George Bush won in 2000 - despite questions over Florida’s results at the time.

But Trump and his administration have resisted cooperating with a transition.

So what might happen?

In August, two veterans sent an open letter General Mark Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

In it, they raised the possibility of the military getting involved.

They said if Trump refused to leave, quote, “the United States military must remove him by force, and you must give that order."

Others have said such a move would be better left to the Secret Service.

There’s a basic legal principle that the military should stay out of domestic law enforcement matters.

Biden though is likely to transition to office over Trump’s objections; the president only has so much power.

Once a federal agency - called the General Services Administration - names an apparent winner, things shift into high gear.

At that point, the president-elect’s team can obtain briefing books, tap into funds, and send representatives to government agencies.

The GSA hasn’t yet declared Biden the winner.

But it said it will ascertain the winner when, quote, "... it is clear based on the process laid out in the Constitution."

Political scientists are optimistic about the resilience of this legal framework.

Earlier this year, the Trump administration complied with statutory requirements, providing federal office space and government resources to the Biden campaign.

Government officials take an oath to uphold the U.S. Constitution.

Experts say this oath would require recognizing Biden as the incoming president if he wins the Electoral College, regardless of what Trump says.

Yes, and the Secret Service will do so after Jan20, 2021 at 12:01PM. That's when trump isn't President anymore.

Not a question. Makes no sense.

Prove that Biden did not steal the election, in court if necessary (if possible), and Trump will go when his term is up. The media "projecting" Jim Crow Joe the "winner" makes it look utterly dishonest on top of all the other controversy.

Burden of proof is on the person alleging fraud to demonstrate by a preponderance of the competent evidence, not on the Defendant to disprove the claim.

Doesn't matter. Even Karl Rove has thrown in the towel. All certifications will happen on schedule. And GA an WI doing recounts is good - it helps verify that nothing got messed up.

I'll reply. Trump is excercising his rights guaranteed under the constitution to persue this path. Let the judicial system do what its designed to do and make the ruling if it comes to that. Then we move on.
Thats the bottom line right there.

correct, conceding is not a requirement, but trying to use government agencies to use as his own is a no no . simple matter is after Jan 20 , Trump is nothing but trespasser and things get ugly.

Lots of politicians are loud-mouthed boors. That is a red herring.

There is no forthcoming transition. You based your prior comment on nothing, and you're countenancing the destruction of the US Constitution in that case.
