Voters Are Terrified That Trump Will CANCEL Future Elections

Voters are expressing their concerns about Donald Trump possibly cancelling future elections, on top of his repeated threats to stay in office after his next term ends. There are Constitutional limits on what he can do, but that hasn’t stopped him from trying in the past. But with his incompetent team around him, he’s unlikely to be successful with whatever he may try, as Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains.

I have received tons of messages from viewers, uh, both here at Ring of Fire and of course over at my other channel, fair and Balanced people asking Could Trump cancel the 2026 midterm elections? And of course here is just one of those questions. This comes from, uh, spin Hester 6 5 3 7. Who asks, can Trump suppress the midterm election in 2026? And how likely is it that he will be able to change the Constitution in regard to a third term? Is there a pathway to suppress the next presidential election altogether? So multiple different questions there. Let me start with the easy ones. Can we change the Constitution to give him a third term in office? Yeah, we could. Is that easy to do? Absolutely not. Are the numbers there to do it by any pathway to amend the constitution? No, they are not. So, constitutionally speaking, Trump ain't gonna get a third term.

Now, could he cancel the next election? No, he can't because that is also called for in the Constitution. So those two parts of the question, outta the way midterm elections, can he suppress those exact same answer? No, he cannot. There's nothing he can do to cancel elections that, of course are called for by the US Constitution. Now having said that, having said you know, answer to all three questions is no, no, no, absolutely not. Technically there's always a caveat, right? And the caveat is that if Republicans were to somehow get the number of people necessary to amend the constitution, whether it's actually through the act of Congress, and then of course the state legislature legislatures have to ratify it. Or if it's the states calling for a constitutional convention, in which case you then have to have three quarters of the states. Um, it is a herculean task, but it's not out of the realm of possibility, I guess, because it could still happen.

But the likelihood of it is, you know, close to zero. Like tho those are things that are just absolutely not going to happen. So I do wanna put everybody's mind at ease a little bit 'cause I got a ton of questions asking about this. No, the 2026 midterm elections will not be canceled. No, Trump is not going to cancel the 2028 presidential election. Will he try to stay in office for a third term somehow, some way? I won't put it past him at all. I think that's a very high probability. But I think in four years from right now when he would have to try to do that, um, his brain is gonna be jello pudding. So he won't even be in the mental state to be able to think of something like that, uh, let alone make it happen. One of the best things about Donald Trump for America is that he surrounds himself with incompetent people. And because of that, I don't think he's gonna be able to pull off some of the most dastardly plans that he has to try to stay in power forever. We saw it fall apart the first time. I don't think a second time would end any differently.
