Ok, let’s play the meme out. Under what pretense will martial law be imposed, where will it be imposed, and who will enforce it? There are not enough LEOs local, state and federal to enforce it and the military may be a bit busy if we’re nuking the Norks and China retaliates. I’ve seen this meme over and over from back in the Clinton days, through Bush, and it’s simply not plausible. Localized area for shot period of time during a disaster, yes...and that’s even dicey, but nationwide martial law? Not going to happen, IMHO.

FReepers predicting that Bammie can impose martial law should take a deep breath & google possible scenarios by which he might attempt to do so.

They’ll find that it’s not as easy as the POTUS merely picking up the phone.

I believe the states would respond with “You want martial law, Mr. Prez? Fine, make it happen! We’re not lifting a finger.”

Bammie would have no choice but to shriek like Daffy Duck, “You’re ALL under arrest!!!”
